I first started writing this blog as a way to refocus my thinking after a debilitating mental breakdown in 2008. Having been educated in writing, I had hoped that my love for words would have left a trail for me to follow and, well, here we are.

You

~ Harlan Didrickson 
You can find 
what you’re looking

is you and

~ Harlan Didrickson 
Falling in love 
means less about 
romance and sex
than it does

hear the song 
of someone’s soul 
in their quiet

~ Harlan Didrickson 
Funny thing 
about missing 
one thinks 
it stings 
when gone
but when 
it returns 
it’s hard 
to imagine

👀

~ Harlan Didrickson 
Looking for

but now 
it’s not 
stop looking 
for things 
and see
what’s been

I look for 
find and keep
