The sky is gray.
The water, calm.
It's times like this 
When the world
is at peace.

There is something about 
the mysteriousness of water
that intrigues me.
So dangerous but
alluring.
To jump in and yet

I think I'm lost.
Actually, I think I always have been.
My entire life I have spent being a person for everyone; 
Each a different version of who they all wanted me to be.
A good friend,
A perfect daughter, 

Because I am graduating this year it finally hit me that I'd have to leave and I had a crisis about it, so I wrote this.

I used to be embarrassed to say that I am from Winooski. 

I was broken.
I know, shocker right?
Me, of all people, with my heart in a million pieces.
Let me tell you, it’s happened more than once.
And it hurts,
A lot.
I swore off love and affection completely at one point.
