Sitting in the dark and analyzing all the life I’ve lived up until now. And I will take all the broken pieces of myself and reform them into the person I am. All the shards that are my heartbreaks and sorrows, dreams and ambitions. Because after all what am I, but the sum of my experiences? And all the pieces of me are shaped differently with rounded surfaces and jagged edges. But the pieces of my old self will still fit and fuse into the core of my new self because I have grown and developed and shifted and adapted, but I am still me. The old me and the new me, like different shades of blue, overlap and blend into one another creating a contrast that is easy to see, but is still entirely blue. Here my past and my present will speculate on my future. Here I will continue breaking me down and building me up, harboring at the nexus of my being every little dream and sentiment that gives life to my soul.
