Enter My Chapel
ARTWORK
No part of me is original. I am a mosaic of everyone I have loved, their favorite states, foods, songs, and stores, even if they were only with me for a heartbeat. I am a unique cumulation. The cracks between each piece of glass, where the experience meets my hearts desire, I have learned to embrace. For they are not flaws, they allow space for the glue that holds me together. My window shines lights on others. I enjoy being in control of my piece and a stroke in others’ too; I work to make it yellow by adding green to the blue.
