Borealis 2015-2016

Look Up Stability and dependency, thank you for giving it to me. Something important to me. No clouds will make me doubt the presence. The disappear- ance will not erase my faith of tomorrow. I know you’ll come back. Being bright, to be my light, such light giving birth to hope. I don’t need wings to grow from the depths of my spine to fly. With a red balloon in my chest, once popped the pieces still there. A part of me, mak- ing my bones vibrate. Giving me a separate peace, no other person having done what I can do. To touch change. Changing every day, new color, new shape, new canvas, new time as paint mixes together. Chang- ing time to time and I am still held stable. Greatest way to fight monotony, when I fly, am free, bigger than the world, separate from the world, endless possibilities, embracing change, inside of me, yet knowing, I won’t fall crashing and burning like a falling star to be crushed to ash. Don’t tell me you don’t understand or do, I don’t have to care. Whether it rains, thunders, strikes with lightning you don’t have to understand. Simply look up. Breanna Long 3.2
