I was looking through an old poem journal I used to write in at the beginning of college and found this poem written 1 month after Dave and I started dating... It's as if I already knew he was the one!
What is this feeling,
So familiar, yet so new?
Am I truly floating
In this sky of crystal blue?
I was caught in my free fall,
Just swept into the light.
Words told me of freedom,
If I'd end my fight.
So tired of searching,
Being lonely and cold.
Then before me sitting,
A heart pouring gold.
I fear no more falling,
No struggles nor shadows.
Only sparkling comfort,
That continuously grows.
and grows and grows.... that was written over 5 years ago. Crazy.
I also realized that as of August I will have been a freshman in high school 10 years ago. I don't know why, but that makes me feel old... so incredibly distant from that time in my life. Yet, when I think about the memories so many are still so vivid in my mind. Strange how that works.
Anyhow 2009 is breezing by. It's not an easy breeze, more like a tornado. Definitely moving at a faster pace than should be allowed. It makes me happy to know that the heavy coursework is done. Now I have to work hard to show that it was classwork, NOT my entire ability to perform that suffered so far this year. I'm starting to build a lot more confidence, it's the thick skin that is hard to develop. I have Midwestern skin, not east coast skin.
I'm excited for this weekend. Dave is coming, and so is Leah! Yay!!
