Branches Book

BRANCHES

all of the lasts, all of the friday afternoons and wednesday nights. we loved with sacrifice. we loved with vulnerability. we loved with one another.

And we lived-

simultaneously and in synchronicity, somehow together even when miles divided us. we lived so alive, with light in our eyes and desperation for adventure in our heads. we lived with each other by our sides.

we laugh together. we grow together.

we love. we live. we are.

Remember that dirt under your nails is the earth wanting to be closer to your hands and that the body under your clothing doesn’t belong to a man.

April is only 30 days long, it will come and go and the sadness it leaves in you will fade with May.
