I dreamed 

I was mist 

Blanketing the forest 

Comforting the trees 

Beautifully. 

I dreamed 

I am a 17-year-old girl who has jumped through several hoops to get to where I am today in life. 

I have spent my teenage years healing the younger me. 

I still

can't believe

you're leaving.

Gone

now

is the right word.

We haven't talked

in who knows

how long

but,

do you remember?

For a long time 

I'd have vivid dreams,  

bursts of REM that gave me the illusive bliss 

of being wherever 

and the closest return  

to the mind of a child 

Tell me we'll be ten forever 

and I'll ride my scooter to your house 

every day, and never learn 

not to trip over the crack on your driveway. 

a small thing

sometimes things

sometimes it’s big

but just a drop of it

can push you forward to do amazing things

one thing

that you should experience in your life

is 

hope
