i've heard thunder and seen lightning every day this week. had some tough goodbyes over lunch, wide smiles morphing into pixelated grins. there's been tears and short breaths but there's freedom too. her hairpins still in my car and the passenger seat remains adjusted to her. so maybe this isn't the end, just life taking a different shape.

hairpins
i've heard thunder and seen lightning every day this week. had some tough goodbyes over lunch, wide smiles morphing into pixelated grins. there's been tears and short breaths but there's freedom too. her hairpins still in my car and the passenger seat remains adjusted to her. so maybe this isn't the end, just life taking a different shape.
inspired by my friend's hairpins sitting in my car's cupholder from prom
