Away From Here

The name's Andrea. I am 21. I love fall, peach tea, thin wrists, birds, sweaters, nail polish, books, my camera, and being outside.

There is a difference between saying goodbye and letting go. Goodbye is not permanent. You can meet years later as old friends and share what happened in your life. You can smile and laugh about all the nonsense that you both went through. However, letting go is being okay with never seeing this person ever again…being okay with never knowing how their life turned out…being okay with fifty or more years of silence… being okay with running into that person at a grocery store and having them not acknowledge your presence. This is the part of life that doesn’t sit well with me and never will.

She loved him because he had brought her back to life. She had been like a caterpillar in a cocoon, and he had drawn her out and shown her that she was a butterfly.

I loved her. Not simply, certainly not passively, but clearly, specifically; I loved her…She was kind but would not accept confusion. She was beautifully warm… Her heart was coloured by a deep gentleness; She was true.
