with or without a teaspoon of seasalt

dear swallow that diary,

it is more of a celebration for some than others, but for me it is a week of remembrance more than anything. being taught from such an early age about loss and the significance of it, i assume is why i tend to obsess over the reflection part longer than the party. loss is nearing once again. it will be time to remember for everyone else and i will be working on finding the pieces to make peace with it all. i've spent many years mourning and i've spent many more grieving, but one of these days it'll be my turn to celebrate.
