introductions

the leaving gets easy after a while.

always for the same reason,

on repeat.

a broken record filled with

scratches and scrapes.

but the hellos,

they're all different.

walking up to a stranger,

a closed soul,

and struggling to find

words

in a place where there aren't

any,

is nearly impossible.

but somehow,

surviving the silence

and beginning a story

afterwards makes it

worth it.
