i went to my friends college graduation this weekend. it is amazing to think that i have been out of college for a year already. insane. what have i accomplished in a year, you ask? well, not a hole heck of a lot. applied to and got rejected from med school. worked some more on building a house in the sierra mountains. been depressed and sad and alone. over the last year i have been as low as i have ever been. the loneliest. the saddest. the darkest. stranded in the desert.
i have been to the desert
roamed and journeyed the desert
made the desert my home
the misery was too real
the pain was too familiar
the darkness was too comforting
but yet i was uneasy
not a destination, just a fire
a tool used to refine me
to teach me
to make me struggle
to make me grow
to stretch me
please lord, bring me into the promised land
i am tired of the desert
not my timing
but your perfect alignment
