Jul 2014
the world around me has become a tornado, everything around me is falling apart and flying away, but you are still here.
and though you are only a small strand of grass, i hold on to you against this raging storm.
eventually i know i must let go, for a single strand of grass cannot hold a burden as heavy as myself.
just know that when i let go and hurl myself into the whirlwind around us, i will forever be wishing i could've held on for a few moments more.
and though you are only a small strand of grass, i hold on to you against this raging storm.
eventually i know i must let go, for a single strand of grass cannot hold a burden as heavy as myself.
just know that when i let go and hurl myself into the whirlwind around us, i will forever be wishing i could've held on for a few moments more.
i started this a few months ago, inspired by a thunderstorm that was raging outside my window, but never finished it. two weeks ago i looked at it again thinking of a specific person and it all came together.
