found friends in the locust
I lost a part of myself here, but have gained so much. I splash my feet in the water, under the moonlight, tapping your name in morse code. I can see you smiling. I can taste your laughter in the ripples of the lake.
I feel pretty, oh so pretty.
You are.
I toss and turn all night. I toss and turn to see the sun rise.
Morning girl.
Morning boy.
