I can I know

figuring it out, one step at a time


Filling the Spaces

Choosing beauty over comfort. Experience over familiarity.

Krabi, Thailand

thailand, krabi, palm trees on beach with blue sky

Colors brighter, sun stronger
Sounds of the ocean, of motors, of wind
Clouds blinding, fluffy, mountains thick, green
Constant motion of waves over sand
Feelings of peace, of overwhelm, of beauty
Sweat dripping as proof that Iโ€™m here
The sky and the trees, the heat and the breeze
Skin touching wood, touching beach, touching air

beach in krabi, thailand. sand and water and sky

Where does the time go
As anxiety crumbles, rolling through
The tracks of my mind
Thereโ€™s no time like the present
Fleeting
Fading
Ever present, ever changing

blue sky, green rock, blue water. krabi, thailand.
What are you so scared of
Again with the trapped words, come on
The anger inside me boils up, wants to come out
It doesnโ€™t. It sits there, stews, sloshes around
I swallow. It goes away.
