Collar

This was from my first collection of writings. I remember being in this headspace. I remember wanting something so bad that I would do anything to get there.

Let’s be honest, I still want it. I still crave that feeling of ownership, but I am less attached to the jewelry behind it. I have been thinking about this a little more lately, what I want and that feeling of ownership.

Ownership comes in many different forms. It is still something I need. And yes, I have realized it is a need. I can’t connect with people romantically without it.

But there is always growth. There is a feeling within me that is ok with taking my time. I want to get it right. Not perfect, but right for me.

Some things are just worth the wait.
