I stare at a
Polaroid image
Of my life
Waiting for the
Stitches and details
To form—
For the colors
To paint themselves
On the sticky surface
To tell me shyly 1000
Words I couldn’t
Ever utter

But it remained white
My life,
Just an unwavering
Vastness of vacancy
Blank and devoid

I smile sulkily as
It dawns upon me
The revelation
That all emptiness
Can be filled

It told me only
9 words
"Young girl,
It is not too late
To be”

~

I dedicated this to myself when I was going through a hard time. Not knowing what to do with myself, feeling empty and unwritten. I dedicated this to my best friend, who felt the same. Now, I dedicate it to all of you who are going through a similar trouble in your lives.
