As the day draws nearer, I tremble with excitement and lament. I want this experience, to be independent and on my own if only for a while. At the same time, I can’t leave. My life has just become renewed; new faces, new places, new love. I have become acquainted with an old familiar face that brings about fierce memories of my apparently more youthful days. He stirs the flames in my heart like no one else could and like no one else had before. I want to take him with me. I wish to stow him away and fly with him in the air, above the ground, away from the restraints of our small town. Maybe someday we will travel together and finally live but, for now, I can only wait.
