"What are our lives but stories told to us?—continually astonishing us, continually revising themselves.” - Joyce Carol Oates

when does inspiration ever strike

when does beauty overwhelm

and when does life realize the way it is planned

a seed planted, a similar fruition—

then, like an unexpected storm

the face of a planet changes

an entire world, altered

but you’re still you

something you thought was a part of you is gone,

transmogrified

still there
