Look at me look

away look

around our eyes

betray attraction hidden

in our lives

before us came

and went and—

Stop. And feel

the poetry of the moment.

“I didn’t have any grand ambitions other than to write, share ideas, and build an awareness of who I am through my thoughts.” - @msuster, The Harder I Work, The Luckier I Get

I’ve created this tumblr to share those ideas with you. Let the journey begin.
