A lesson in forgetting: the past always heals faster when you’re not looking. The way we try and hold onto memories like they are more than water. The way we look into the pools of our past searching for minnows, searching for fish. A lesson in remembering: the water is always smoother in retrospect. Where are the waves? Where are the currents? The way in which we tell ourselves we could do it again. Dive in again. Make it out alive. Last night, your voice touched me in my sleep; I woke up thinking about waterfalls.
