Nerves and grape leaves.

I leave tomorrow.
My flight off this rock is at 8pm est.
I'm supposed to be packing.
I'm supposed to be seeing family.
I'm supposed to be not here.

I am so motherfuckinggoddamnnervous it is unbelievable.
I feel like I have so much unfinished business here.
and I hate leaving things un-done.

I am leaving my loves behind.
My family and my other family.
The people who birthed me and those whom I have spent every moment with for the past three years.

And my love.
my love.
my love.

I wanted this post to be one of those awe-inspiring goodbye speeches, but I have never been good at articulating my core.
My mind is flooded with to-do lists and sentimental cloudiness.
and therefore my writing leans toward the prose.

I'm going to miss you all more than you'd believe.
Because even though I may not say it
you all are the only things that keep me living.
the literal life-blood that runs through me.

and I thank you for being diesel.
