you've moved before. what advice would you give someone who's about to relocate and start a new life in a foreign place?
you'll be fine.
that's not helpful at all. i don't know anyone, i've never lived in a city, and i don't know where anything is. i won't have a car and i've not once utilized public transportation before. i'm scared.
you're the good kind of scared. if it was the bad kind of scared,
you wouldn't have made the decision to go.
it's not too late to back out. 
it's also not too late for us to get dessert. churros?
smiles
you always know exactly what to say. 

you said little to nothing
but it was everything i needed to hear

you've sold me on the journey

you stopped my mind from spiraling
but ignited rapid afterthoughts that
sparked flames that led to forest fires

d  e  f  o  r  e  s  t  a  t  i  o  n

thoughts

maybe you know me better than i thought
just a scratch above well enough and
you never demand for more

feelings 
you're a comfortable acquaintance
and you've taught me the importance of
forgiving, forgetting, and starting over

actions
maybe thoughts are better left alone
and life is more beautiful
when you let it reveal itself to you

maybe it's the unknown we find most comfort in
revealing that we're still strangers, you and i
