If I am to be alone then I would like to be so with grace. I do not wish to be bitter and angry. I want my heart to get bigger; to grow increasingly attuned to beauty.
My romance will be with The Mundane. I will fall in love with dandelions peaking through cracked sidewalks; warm expressions that soften hardened faces; the steady sound of passing cars; shadows that dance on hardwood floors…
I will find beauty in the everydayness that many find boring. And my attraction will be all the more precious to me for that reason.
