Following

My need to be first
makes me sweep away footsteps
that precede my own.

Deadline

When nearing the end
why is it that time speeds up
precipitously?

Can’t sleep

Is it the green tea
or the excitement of new
possibilities?

Balance

Juggling emotions,
we catch happiness with one hand,
sadness the other.

Reach

You are only as
good as you trust yourself to
be. Therefore, trust more.

Ever after

When your wish comes true
you must ask yourself – can you
survive happily?

Possibility

What we wish for shines
brightest when out of reach. Once
grasped, its luster dims.
