summer’s last rose

 

 

Maybe learning how to be out in the big world isn’t the epic journey everyone thinks it is. Maybe that’s actually the easy part. The hard part is what’s right in front of you. The hard part is learning how to hold the title to your very existence, to own not only property, but also your life. The hard part is learning not just how to be but mastering the nearly impossible art of how to be at home.

I stay and go

I am a pause

I am the passenger
I stay under glass
I look through my window so bright
I see the stars come out tonight
