Antisocial Media

I hope you are not reading this
thinking I’m happy all the time.

I hope you do not take in my photos
and lose your self worth.

The truth is its a moment fleeting
and to compare our lives would be unkind.

For now I feel content-
Like turning this moment into something

I can remember.

Inspiration takes work,
and only you can decide if you have the time.

Why aren’t we more honest about what makes us sad?

Measuring Distance

I find it interesting

that when you are traveling

an unknown route,

the distance feels intimidating,

almost endless…

 

But when you finally decide

to turn around,

you find you haven’t really

gone that far at all.
