“Do you like me for me Or is it just cause you’re lonely And you like a pretty face?”

— It’s a simple question, really (N.G. 4/5/2018)

archaeology

penance comes in many forms

indistinguishable to a muddled mind

thoughts laced with egregious apathy

perhaps unprepared to weather life’s storms

{}

take heart, young one, look up and breathe

this invisible wonderment is for all that seek

your worth is not derived from gravity or time herself

let your hands dig through soft soil to uncover the seeds underneath

{}

be still, darling, your shell is your own

she will protect and guide you for as long as you roam

treat her kindly, she’s all that you have 

reach up and stretch your skin, you’ve found your backbone

🍂 went to a local pumpkin patch today and learned that the little franken-pumpkins are called elf houses!

Where you might see trash, others might see treasure… or compost for new tomatoes! 🍅 It can be hard to not feel like trash sometimes, so it can help to remember that even “trash” has value!
