Change
My life was a wreck, like the Titanic At one point I was sailing smooth, but there were a few bumps in my journey, I just ignored them, until I sank in an ocean of depression. I never knew how bad I was, until someone pulled me to the surface and saved my most salvageable pieces, I never thought I'd find my Jack, but miracles happen out of thin air, out of surprise when needed most. At too young of an age I wallowed in that cold water, I became numb to everything, until I met my savior, who took my broken pieces and showed me off to the world. I got my happiness back, and finally thought someone could love something so damaged, and then something changed. My heart thawed and started beating, then I felt it true happiness, and most of all I felt true love for the first time.

Chicken Soup
There’s something about the taste of simple foodA pinch of salt over grilled meatA sip of chicken soupThat whispers "home," and "longing," and "forgiveness,"And "I’ll never leave you"sThe sense of eternities spent apartOn a cloud-bed mattressWhen all you could ever hope forWas just across the little creekTrailing down the grassy knollThrough the evergreen forestThrough the windswept townTo the door where she waitsSmiling, with a bowl of chicken soup
