Let it Fall

thehistoryofstars:

Winter can be such a beautiful thing,

Spring has its moments,

Once and a while summer gives you a day worth the heat, 

But the fall, 

There is something about the fall that makes everyday worth living. 

It may be because we are so surrounded by death that it reminds us to live. 

Yours, Antoinette

THE ROOM WITHOUT A WINDOW I
Draw a window on the wall
to remind you of the sun.
to remind of the rain and the taps.
to remind you of the sunset that makes you smile.
to remind you of the moonlight that sneaks into your room.
to remind you of the snow that covers the world.
