A simple wish

A simple wish, really

nothing much

nowhere far

no crazy place

a simple, domestic idea, I guess.

A small boat, really

nothing much

nowhere far

not for too long

a single day, I guess.

A solo excursion, really

nothing much

nowhere far

just a day on the water

all by myself

my and my thoughts, I guess.

Peaceful quiet

silent solidarity

all I really wish for, really

a simple wish

of a small boat

just a solo excursion

one sunny day

when the water sparkles and shines and gleams

with just me and my thoughts, I guess.

  • 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
