Life, five fires ago, was
Wildly different
often alone…
Lonely?
I’d travel the coast in
search of more
More adventure
More men
more me
Riding the coattails of
“success” + what was
meant to make Us Happy
But she was
Never happy
You can’t feel happy if
You don’t allow yourself to
Feel Sad Too
Reconnect with the girl from
Five Fires Ago
hold her
love her
let her go
