Ankh

Ankh

No two days are the same;

Life is experienced in stages,

We cycle through different identifies till

We find the perfect one.

I haven’t found the perfect one,

but

I have found the perfect start.

17-year old high school student

Distant and confused

18-year-old college student

Engaged and aware

I am not there, but I am closer

I didn’t know where I was

I still don’t,

but

I know how to find me.

17-year old high school student

Standing still

18-year-old college student

Wondering

There are a hundred steps,

but

I am one step closer.
