Do you know that feeling
right when you’re about
to fall asleep
Your eyes too heavy
to allow you to keep doing
whatever mundane task
Or tuck away those
awful thoughts
that you cover with a mask
and you just drift
for a split second
That one second
one millisecond
right after you wake up
you don’t remember
what day it is
or what time it is
You’re just light
free
happy
That one split moment
I’d live in it forever

Book Review: Atmosphere by Taylor Jenkins Reid
I flipped the book over in my hands in the centre of the small airport book shop. Although I had heard promising reviews of Atmosphere by Taylor Jenkins Reid, I hesitated. The synopsis didn’t compel me - I wasn’t much of a space girly. In high school it made me cringe when my peers would talk about the stars.

I can say that this poem is quite literally like a teddy bear to me. I love that you love being in this state, and I love that you allow us to enjoy it with you by describing it so well to the point of being tangible.
