serene
i find peace in these little moments. i seek these everyday. from the quiet of the evening while looking at the moon as i come home from another gig. to the golden hour walks where i inhale everyone’s evening dinners, as i pass by. moments of serenity that remind me of my sentience. nothing matters in these moments. i can inhale, and exhale, without worry of the days behind or ahead of me. it’s rare for me to enjoy these things. but, I will try.

struck
that chord got plucked once again. now, here i am, on a beautiful day, crying. watching the clouds while choking on sobs. my lungs gasping for air between hiccups. how can people be so cruel? i tried finding beauty in everyday. it's always in a peaceful moment that it hits me.
