I’ll walk down to where I saw the beautiful things and lit up faces falling down in beautiful symmetry, pausing to reflect on exactly what brought this interaction here.
\nWriting is my escape to worlds no one can follow, except to trail behind in murmurings beyond my control.
\nTaking steps through places and around to parts of the pieces of my soul, beyond beyond and above<\/i>.
\nI’ll take pictures to keep track of memories, pictures with my eyes to save in my mind, to save in my heart.
\nDetachment from one two three things, counting down as I check them off, and more come to the list but I welcome<\/i> it.
\nTake me down, love, down to the places we used to play as children, wiping those tears and making dreams out of tree leaves and summer sun.
\nI’ll write on paper about all of the things I used to know and feel, and they’ll know the strength of my bravery in the face of what the world means.
\nWhisper to keep close the blessing of knowing what it is to live at this moment, to serve in this way, purity of thought and motive…we’re circling around one step after another after another.<\/p>\n
I’ll see you at the end, and we’ll walk down to the paths we know well, at the edge of a new place, to face a new creation.<\/p>\n
We’ll call it home.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
