Safe Haven

Soft sunlight

Warming our bodies

Cold from the long night

We stand up

Shaking the dew from the morning's melt off of our fur

We leap into the wildflowers

Running along the river,

Flowing at an easy pace.

We are carefree,

You will be, too,

If you let your mind wander to such a faraway place that seems so

Impossible

You can reach this

You can climb to this height of living

Of existence

It just takes effort

Perseverance

Hope

To reach your safe haven.

    It's a band piece

    weird, I know

    it's from last year

    and we only played it in concert once

    but it means a lot to me

    it reminds me of a lot.

    Of Webtoons and authors and demented circuses

  • Me

    How

    do others see me?

    Do they see a girl in gray cargo pants and light blue thermal quarter zip?

    Do they see a friend who loves them despite her crankiness?

    Do they see a quiet awkward girl who prefers books to people?
