college writings

I can across a few of my works from college today. It was kind of a walk down memory lane reading these and remembering what prompted each passage.

More beyond the boundary and barrier that holds her in.

More beyond the shoulds and should nots that play in her mind.

More beyond who she has become.

The wind blows moments of change right by.

It comes and goes and wraps around.

It lends and lifts and calls to her.

She follows the wind and realizes that she is no longer the same.

The secret is in the going, in the going, and never to stop.
