Each morning I wake up and
face the page

The next blank sheet on my notebook.
Using pen, I ink thoughts and feelings onto paper with no expectations of turning it into anything.

The first to say
When I enter theΒ
cafe
she won't recognize me right away. We've both changed a lot.
In fact I wouldn't recognize her either except for the fact that theΒ barista in a cafe is always on display like a flower.
She will recognize me eventually though. I'll go when she's doing something...

While my friend was looking at his phone, I looked up at the sky. Inside my head I envisioned myself looking up at the sky from a cool angle, like I was on the cover of a video game.

Descending
After the fog I saw what looked like computer chips. The layout of a semi large city in the middle ofΒ
flyover country

A writing tip
Write something without intending to finish it.
Don't act on the compulsion to finish and share it with someone. Just write something down, low stakes, like a secret nobody will read--
actually scratch that.
write it like someone will read it. But this someone is a special person. If you were to take...

Paulina was a content intern at our agency. The smart and cute type. But what made her most attractive was her work ethic. Often we were the last ones to leave the office.
So it's no surprise that she was still around when this phone call came, while the rest of...

Chase
He knew his way around Old Town that was for sure.
I remember when they came to get us his back was to the entrance of the cafe. So he didn't notice until I pointed them out. That's when a look changed in his face. In a flash.
I can't say how...

Die today, Die tomorrow
Before he was killed he pleaded. He was too young he said. He had his whole life ahead of him.
In that moment he was then asked. Die today, or die two decades from now. Why does it matter? Do you think you would make anything out of your life in...

Landing in Berlin
As the plane descended into
Berlin
, my girlfriend and I looked for landmarks through the window that we recognized. She's had sharp eyes and will always spot things first and point them out to me. "Look it's
