She was lost,
and she didn't
know what she felt anymore.
She was both
happy and sad at the same time.
It was the
most frustratingly confusing mix of emotions.
It was as if
too much was happening all at once
and her mind
couldn't handle it.
The changes
were approaching too rapidly,
And there was
no foreseeable way to stop them.
Not that she necessarily
wanted to stop them.
Just slow the
approach down a little.
She compared
herself to the trees of the forests.
A small
sapling is pliable and easily bent
but she felt
like the old, weathered tree.
Beaten by the
storms of life
and as this
potentially big storm approached,
she couldn't
help but wonder
if she'd come
out on the other side
