Addressed To: Soulmate, Out of Reach

They say that women don’t need men, and I believe that to be true. We don’t need men. But, by whatever powers may exist, does my young heart lie awake late at night and long to feel what it has never felt. My eyes wander to the moon and my soul out the window, in search of some companion that my selfish belief in fate says must be out there. Somewhere. I am searching.

  • Portal

    The portal opens in those fleeting moments that feel like they are about to crescendo, about to climb the final step to see over the mountain top.

  • Drizzle

    A recluse and a homebody, little entices me to step outside like I do when water falls from the sky. The smell of fresh grass and wet pavement is magic to the senses. But the experience of being surrounded by it all is another.
