Wanderling❁: May 2015

My 1st poetry collection, Paper Flowers, is available! See how to get your wild hands on it here .

Hi, lovely human. I'm Faren.

I'm a writer & nomad living in the Pacific NW, sharing how I lose & find myself in nature's embrace & the words I arrange. More about me here.

Thanks for reading & feeling with me. I wish you love, awakening, and ascension in your beautiful life.

I thought I could keep reading

the pages of words that make up my life

maybe see you in chapter six

and there, we'd be written

I still want to know how your story ends

---

The feeling was right

Just enough sighs on the wind

But the timing was wrong

---

we were all wrapped up, you see

until it began to rain

when, at last, my paper skin melted away

the silent way you took me in was enough

to make us strangers

to make me afraid

and the shape containing me

is not the one you are looking for
