It’s been another week of big shifts. I’m shedding my skin. I have this new feeling that I can get pregnant. The woman I passed by on the street was far along and I felt connected to her. I felt like I could be her one day. I sensed that it must be weird and uncomfortable to be lopsided.
I’m letting go. I drank some peppermint tea. I walked to the garden and listened to this song:
Things could have been stranger, but I don’t know how
I’m going through changes now
I’ve spent a lifetime trying to figure it out
I’m going through changes now
And i’ve just begun
Under a purple sun
There are many reasons we are what we become
I’m going through changes, ripping out pages
I knew it once, but i forgot
I’m going through changes now
We want everything, but we get what we got
I’m going through changes now
Maybe it’s too soon
Under a purple moon
Maybe it’s too soon
But I’d ride off with you in a big balloon
I’m going through changes, rattling cages
I’m going through changes now
Things could be different but I don’t know how
I’m going through changes, through all of the strangeness
I’m going through changes now.
