“The Wanderer

What is she like?
I was told—
she is a
melancholy soul.

She is like
the sun to the night;

a candle blown.

A lonely kite
lost in flight—
someone once
had flown.”
― Lang Leav, Love & Misadventure

“It's much easier to not know things sometimes. Things change and friends leave. And life doesn't stop for anybody.”
