My Invisible Child

Dear Stranger, We haven't met yet. I'm not sure when that day will come. We may be standing next to each other in the shopping queue or you may be on the next table over from us in a restaurant. Maybe you'll be the person sat next to me on a plane as we both travel to somewhere exotic for our family vacations. Maybe we'll…

Life, Call Me By Your Name

Oh life. You give. You take. You teach. You scold. You love. You are harder than easier. Tougher than gentler. Stranger than logical. Routine is just an illusion isn’t it? There is no normal.

You Aren’t Here

I caught a glimpse at you standing behind me. I didn’t see anyone else. Only you. We were waiting in line to get into a concert venue. I was alone—you were with your best friend.

Changes

Life comes with many changes. Some are welcomed and expected, like a refreshing summer rain, or they run you over like a Semi Truck, leaving you crushed and spread out on the ground. Changes in life are inevitable and with every breath we take they come, whether we want them or not. They aren't meant to destroy us, but to grow us. Although, there are…
