100% happiness

I'm a little late, but I hope you had a very very sweet and lovely Valentine's Day. I know I did. :)

Happy 14th.

metal flowers and broken glass.


I'm breathing underground.
Find me.

Junkyard.
We build branches out of
train tickets and forgotten
pieces of a life.

We are robots with souls.

Sometimes I find a few lines in my head that are perfect together but don't really belong in any poem or don't fit in any of my in-progress pieces. I really like the lines above and can't put them anywhere, so they'll be their own poem for now, I guess.

Mapped Me (part 2)

(part 1 from last year.)

eyes: bright
heart: restless, awake
mind: essay (a tale of two cities)
body: energy

I always end up having extra energy in the nights. Definitely a night person.

Yellow


This past week has been so wild and so much fun at the same time. I am honestly having the time of my life here at home and this month so far has been one of the best ever. You know it's a special kind of happiness when you can't really describe it.

This is what life should always be like.

Water


 
 
 
It rains. It rains for so many days that we lose count. I don't remember the sunshine: I hear wheels slushing through rain, glimpse headlights sliding by. Stare out the windows, watching raindrops.
