There are enough words in me to fill an uncommon space. I love words, adore numbers, crave challenge. But you've heard that before. I'm a self-professed nerd, but I'm capable of seeing the world beyond the book/calculator/pen. Look up. There are beautiful things out there. It's my goal to see them, to feel them, to translate them into words and thoughts and feelings. Not to make sense of them but to live them, to make them my breath and blood and the stars in my eyes. I can see it, right there on the horizon. But it's hidden in the shadow of the sun, and if I close my eyes it might appear.
