Sierra and I are back in florida. We had to come back for the funeral of my wonderfullly quirky, free spirited uncle, who died very unexpectedly in his sleep, last Monday night.
I drive in circles. in this citrus cove where I once dwelled. and I can not seem to remember ever living here. I can barely touch the memory of who I used to be, ten years ago when this was my home... of the girl who slept beneath the midnight stars and believed in everlasting love. Today, I am such a different person.
my innocence is gone.utterly and completely gone. I wondered and wondered where it disappeared too
and then I glanced back at sierra, in her car seat, crinkling her nose up at me, her dimple flashing, her little head bobbing along to the music... her eyes twinkling with mischievous glee.
and I think to myself.
everything comes full circle.
the new flowers are in bloom.
somehow. life goes on.
even when people that we love very much leave us. and pass on.
because.
well.
because. it just has to.
Rest in Peace and Know that you are loved
