Dear, Me
Dear 11-year-old Me: You are so loved. You are so worthy of love. You were meant to be a kid, and you should have enjoyed this time as much as possible. You deserved that so much, and I know that it feels awful to have had some of that experience taken away from you. You learned things and experienced things at such young ages—at 3, 5, 7, 9, and now—that left you feeling lost. You were uprooted from a place you loved by a natural disaster and made to move to a place where you were bullied even more for being different.

The Lovely, Sweet Girl
Soft hazel eyes invite you to sit, radiating with a warmth akin to fresh-baked French bread from a Parisian bakery A smile emerges, and a giggle like tinkling bells fill the space as she sips boba tea and schools you on how to properly use chopsticks while eating sushi

Eine Kleine Nachtmusik
I awoke drenched in a sheen layer of sweat. Another adrenaline-filled fantasy encompassed my sleep. We had played another sold-out show, and when I looked over my shoulder, I could see my girl beaming at me and knew that I was right where I belonged. As I gained awareness of my surroundings in the dark bedroom, I looked to the nightstand to read the time. The digital clock read 2:45 a.m. I soon heard a soft sound coming from the end of the hallway and noticed the opposite side of the bed was vacant. I followed the sound out of the room, grabbing a bathrobe to cover myself.
