Arrived to darkness
The shadow of palms looming in the background
Moist air, a sign the ocean is not far off, her big blue abyss, host of another life
I can smell her saltiness, heavy with each inhale
Driving in the backseat of a car unknown to me
Emotions wane, maybe I'll let them surface when alone at my destination
I feel at once utterly lonely and filled to the brim with the endless thought of my potential to grow here, in this city of angels
6 interviews. I'm ready, but the nerves have set in. I am alone, but I am strong. I am worthy and I am deserving
Driving over asphalt, palms stretching up to meet my eyes along the horizon
They look like something Dr. Seuss wrote about countless times in famed children's books, I think
I'm exactly where I'm supposed to be. And the future isn't in my hands, I remind myself
My creator, please remove my fear, thy will be done, not mine
...Now, to order and eat pizza! Hurray!
