And God bless America because I'm 18 years old and I feel so free. Now there are fireworks going off in my head and I know they are beautiful but they are hard to understand.
I don't know why suicide is possible. Luckily for him, it wasn't.
Because the journey through state borders is nothing like the journey through lifetimes and sometimes we get ahead of ourselves.
Someone told me that the less you wash your hair the faster it grows so I bought every bottle of shampoo and conditioner on the shelf and scrubbed for days so that maybe I could slow down time.
It was the last day of my job, and I'm all packed, and I've got a bus ticket to Portland but nobody to pick me up at the station.
Maybe freedom is the ability to get ahead of ourselves.
Maybe if I scrub hard enough i can wash away our problems.
I need .this.
ReplyDeleteI couldn't say what I felt when clicking on this post. It's been about four months, but it feels like years since your last one. The washing away and the slowing down and Oregon and understanding and just I want to thank you. Your words, your thoughts are gold. They got me going forward from what felt like nowhere months ago.
