My wonderful childhood friend got married this summer and the pictures are in! She looks absolutely lovely! It was one of the sweetest ceremonies I've seen and included lots of love, laughs and a few smart aleck remarks (all in about 5 minutes).
My head drifts, connecting dots on the ceiling with stars. Counting hair follicles and fancy shoe collections. I sigh heavily and suck in. Holding the breath through to a new age. Expecting a change in molecules, but I'm here. Again and still and forever. Floating unfinished.
