the beautiful and the silent
she arrived unannounced
redirected from an unknown god
breaching the exosphere without a sound
though coming to life by starlight
she disguised herself as human
finding solace within her own garden
as time passed the ground flourished
showcasing colors never before seen
reshaping the landscape of a parallel world
april two thousand seventeen

I love this. I think it tells me what I should do with my life. Seriously, this is very inspiring. It’s okay if no one ever comes to my “garden,” as long as I enjoy my own colors to the fullest. That’s what I believe, anyway.
