Orange pen

Orange pen

curving, looping, tracing my thoughts onto a page

fulfilling my orders

moved by my hand.

 

Orange pen

flying, soaring, leaping

dancing across the page

my words, my style, my choice.

 

Orange pen

looking so professional and complete

adding depth to the blank white paper

creating a beautiful thing.

 

Orange pen

telling my thoughts

my hopes and dreams and potentials

my losses and nightmares and what-ifs

spilling words onto paper

telling my story.

 

Orange pen

a final, last period

capped,

set aside,

notebook

closed.

  • 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
