Kiss Me Goodnight

What you are about to read is a journey

It started on a rainy day

The kind of rain that only pours from the inside

And flooded my living room

It could have been a few days

Or a few hours

Same position and blurry eyes

Even with no energy to move

Those words needed to be written

And that's that

Without expectations

The process of healing started

From Darkness to Light

But not as a destination

More like a constant battle to gravity.

"Kiss Me Goodnight is an open window in her dark room. And we all must climb inside and stay for a while." - EMILY HART FISKIO
