Fellowship


How strange it is

To put on my headphones

And be comforted,

Serenaded

By the voice of another

Who, perhaps,

Has been long gone

Or who is even now

Walking on rain-washed sidewalks,

Living a life,

Slowly dying,

Just as I do now.

McKenzie Romero

I'm the oldest daughter of the Romero family. I love my God, my family, my friends, and, uh... food. I also like to write little snippets of nonsense when they come to me, so I guess I'm a poet of sorts. (Also: Some of my poems, now that I look back, were legit hormone-fueled... but I posted them anyway 'cause I have OCD and everything must be in its place, so if I wrote it *pbbbt*, it's in there). Thanks for reading my stuff! It means a lot!
