Possibilities

I did something scary
At the kitchen table
That I never sit at
But I did, lit a candle
Had a drink

Called my friends
And watched them cook
Watched them eat
Filled out paperwork
Laughed

There is alone
And there is not being alone
This was the latter

It will always be the latter, I think
Stone by stone I build my house
One toothbrush by my sink
But so many people who make me smile

When you let go of that one idea
Of what life is supposed to be
You see, I see, there are so many more
Beautiful and true possibilities

One of those is for me.

With Love,
Natalie
