i wish to be

as peaceful as the moss
that lays itself against the forest floor and walls

i wish to be
as silent as the moon
that shines brightly in the dark night

i wish to be

okay

i wish to be
a strong tree
standing tall against time.

Another birthday...

They say the world was born in fire... my 32nd birthday was born in water. Salty water. That consisted of sweat, tears and ocean goodness.

Another year passes and I am even more blessed than ever.

Changes

Things are different now,

she said. And the words hung there

like lead in the air
