Frogs croaking & crickets singing in the night’s air.....
As she sits on the porch watching the stars twinkle in the night’s sky, she can hear the frogs croaking and the crickets singing in the night’s air. She wonders to her self of where all the days have passed to. It seemed like yesterday she just got up to the house and now a month had passed her by and she hasn't even begun to sift through her life. She knows she needs to get started on that as her time there is very short, soon she'll need to leave and go back home to her normal everyday life.
"I can remember so many things that other people have forgotten or thought I had forgotten about." She writes in her journal. "So many things about my life that need to be told, that need to be heard. I am so tired of every one wondering what my life is like. Do they know the real me, or only what they want to know? Is it also that they only know what they hear and don't stop to find out if it's really what's going on? I wonder if people will ever really know what I'm really feeling or what I'm really about. Will they deny all these things really happening, because of fear, and embarrassment?"
She knows in her heart she's doing the right thing. Writing down her life so one day after she's gone People will know why she did the things she did and why she made all the decisions she did. Perhaps one day someone reading this will know what she was really like and know the true girl who lies within her.
