Time

I feel like time is running out, there’s so much I want to do. So much I need to do to feel like I have done something. I feel like my life is shrinking by the second; then I look at my Raven, at my friends and everything feels okay again. 

So much is going to happen in the next couple of years, I’m young and this world is ever changing. All I can do is know where I want to be and fight for that. I want to be with my love in a town that I am still getting used to knowing. With the people I have known for so long. And to be able to do that, I must go away for a little while. There is only a future because of the present. As one of my favourite quotes from a poem goes “If I defer the grief, I will diminish the gift”.

Happiness needs pain to know how happy one is. I will be back, I will be home. I just need to be elsewhere before that.
