i published this at three am but i can't remember when i wrote it so let's just say it was a rainy day in april.  sorry it's not that long. i'll probably add to it in the future.

'i exist,' i typed on the keys. A simple phrase one will take for granted far too long. I wrote it again, 'i exist i exist i exist i exist'. I typed these two words out again and again until i was mumbling them under my breath as my fingers seemed to be on auto-pilot. Soon these two words became thirty and thirty became eighty and eighty became two hundred and fifty and i didn't dare stop there. I wrote until my fingers ached against my macbook, i wrote until my lips were dry from speaking, i wrote until i believed these two words and all the power they held. I exist along with the moon and the stars in the sky that dance in the night sky. I exist with the grass that sways in the wind and the soil that crumbles beneath my feet. I exist next to the roaring waves and all the undiscovered life the ocean holds in its dripping palms.
