alone

like walking in a desert all alone.

nothing for miles and miles.

never ending.

nothing but sand, sand, sand.

uncomfortable and far too much of it.

try to run away from it.

it's everywhere.

maybe i'll wear better shoes

one's that trap the sand from perturbing inside

waste

i do not want to be a waste.

simply just another wrapper or crumpled up napkin.

use life wisely.

friends

well hello. i haven't written on here in quite some time. recently, i have become aware of the beauty in friendships. friendship is something so captivating and something so freeing about the community of laughing, loving, and even crying together. i have recently had the opportunity to meet some pretty outstanding people who are held very close to my heart.

"i awoke this morning with devout thanksgiving for my friends, the old and the new"

-Ralph Waldo Emerson
