How did I get here

Who have I been

what kind of a friend am I

who do I really want to be

what do I want

why am I like this

who could I have been

where could I have gone

have known

thought

experienced

felt

learned

from the world around me?

What would I feel like

if I had succumbed to makeup

trending clothes

hateful words?

How have I become this human being

how did I get here?

How did my life lead up to this?

Why am I like this?

What has the world become?

  • Shedding our skin

    It's December already

    I've been alive for over thirteen years

    over thirteen years of learning and growing

    making mistakes and accomplishing feats

    of finding myself and uncovering layers in not only myself

  • Best friend

    Your new-ish house

    your dog sleeping on the rug

    my family and your family chatting comfortably

    your kitchen with your hot chocolate

    the fun spinny stools at the kitchen island

    that's one of my happy places
