A Little Note From The Empire: Day One... Again.




What if the answers never come?


What if I'm floating aimlessly through what seems like eternity, without a place to call my home or even a place to stand and rest?


What if?


Maybe... this is my home; here, on this page. Here I am... meeting myself again.


Hello?


It's nice to feel a familiar face.



Where've you been? I've missed you. I didn't even know that I did.


This is where it all began, isn't it? Writing... like this.


Maybe this is where I... began.


In thought. In connection to the page. In connection to self, the moment a thought hits the page.


There... I Am.


Hello again.


Hello, You.



Who knew I'd see myself in words like this?


I thought I was a woman with brown curly locks the world constantly points out and blue eyes everyone loves but thinks are green.


I thought I was the freckles on my skin.


I thought I was a mother and a musician.


I could even say that I thought I was love...



But words?


On a page?


I never knew I could feel more seen.




What's my pronoun? "The."



hm.





I want it to end. This thought.


So I could have closure. I always want closure.



Put a pretty bow on it as we wrap this up.


But maybe it just ends with another question.




Why does everything end with a question?
