Adventures, Memories, and Everything in Between

riverwalk

for every beautiful view i see
out here in the rocky mountains,
i am reminded of you.
it is,
however,
slowly fading as i begin to see
myself in the lakes.
of course, i still do see you.
of course, i see you everywhere i go.

with every rock i jump on,
or slip off of and become
completely soaked from the waist down
(we don't talk about it)
i feel more like myself.
to feel like myself is so new.
its so relieving. 
its a little scary too,
but ill leap into the dark a few times
and im okay
if i end up
ankle deep
in river water
in tennessee or north carolina.
