Favorite Quote:
Hope is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul,
And sings the tune without the words,
And never stops at all.

-Emily Dickinson


Honestly
I have no idea where I started.
But it must have been somewhere between
anxiety and actualization
'cause
that's where I am now
and I've heard life takes you full circle.

Not that my end is coming-
I'm too young to die.
And sometimes feel
too young to really live.

At my age
I waiver in the gray areas
of what I've learned
and what I have no chance of knowing-
which I've heard
doesn't change much.

Still
I hope to oneday
fill myself with all the stars and shadows
I can gather
memorize every sunrise I've seen
'cause I've heard that life
is in the little things.

And I've heard
that even when I'm
lightyears older
and
ages away
the turning of the world
won't miss a beat.


But
it helps to remember that
somewhere
along the way
something I'll say
will be something
you'll hear.
