nude stairs and cutting puzzle pieces.

it's that moment before jumping into a freezing cold lake at night in the nude.

the limitless hours spent dreaming about your first kiss.

that gut wrenching feeling you get when you miss a stair.

the first snow fall of the year.

trying to look for that deer in the field that everyone can see but you can't find it to save your life.

finding a novel that has words that are ultimately and completely perfect and you sincerely love it with all your heart.

meeting that one person that makes you question how you even lived without them in the first place.

finding out the cutting words she said about you and knowing she doesn't even know you or your story.

getting an A on a test you thought you bombed.

waking up and feeling with all of your being that life has sincerely changed.

that moment you just want to lay down in fetal position and cry as many tears as your body will permit.

grandma kisses that leave lipstick marks on your cheek.

puzzle pieces fitting here and there but they can never find the whole picture.
