There are times while here at Allegheny College when I am struck by unmeasurable despair. I suppose there is nothing terribly surprised about the feelings that I am having today - they are not unique or different from something I've experienced before. I suppose that going through life and situations before makes the lesson learned and the experience gone.
I hope some days that my love could leave my body like the rain leaves the desert sands
That just as quickly it kisses the red sandstones where wildflowers spring from the soil to quickly wilt away it flows away to the next town.
Some days I wish to be nothing more than a waif.
Because then perhaps I would not be ridiculed for being shy, or quiet, or reserved - but rather felt like a breeze without taking anything with me that wasn't my own.
Just let me be alone in myself and free from the chains that bind, that hold, that cut into my heart and soul.
