this morning

this morning was the departure, and we rose alert and alarm-less at 5am, almost as if we were the ones who were leaving. we brought breakfast for four, and enjoyed almost an hour together, sipping coffee and spooning yogurt, waiting on the sunrise before i had to leave and go to school.

the next time we see each other it will be in Boston, and it's amazing to think how much things have changed since i met them there last summer.

there are circles,

and circles,

and circles,

(all the way down):

the movement from

surreal,

to

so real,

is

a beautiful thing.
