November 12
There are snowflakes falling outside my window
I couldn’t be happier
Welcome winter!
I’m so glad you’re here
I’ll give you a hug,
But just give me

Me encanta el sonido de la lluvia.
Llena mi cuerpo con un sentido de calma,
y me recuerda del bosque y la naturaleza.
En mi pequeño mundo de solo casas y calles
y jardines bien cuidados,
me recuerdo del mundo
salvaje,
y maravilloso

We drove through rain so torrential that we were blinded for quick moments.
Moving down the road as if frozen in pieces of time, a strobe light illuminating a second at a time of our journey, making it seem as though we moved in slow motion.
And now that it's cleared the sky stands like a softly glowing film backdrop while the trees on either side of the highway approach and disappear, the car on a gigantic treadmill getting no closer to the horizon ahead, while the one behind seems to continually fade.

Sometimes I get goosebumps all over.
The strange feeling that someone just hugged me
And now I'm left cold, in the empty air
where their arms once were.

I got a beautiful journal for my birthday.
Red leather, small enough to fit comfortably in my hand.
I'm too afraid to write in it;
The pages feel special,
Like they deserve words
That are pure and beautiful.
I can't pencil in words that would
Desecrate the ****** smoothness of those sheets.

I'm afraid to write something that doesn't
Live up to what I think
Is worthy to grace the insides of that
Beautiful journal.
