ELLINOR ; we sit on hardwood floors

we sit on hardwood floors in empty living rooms. plain white walls. boxed belongings. this is the process of moving in. this is the beginning of something new. something great. we’ll watch the fireworks, and then play spin the bottle and wait for the sun to rise. the beginning of a new day. a great day. and in a way, all we ever want to do is move in. and in a way, we’ll wonder if the people before us did the same before they left this place. moving. in. moving. out. moving. always moving. photographs will someday remind us how it all went down. this is life. or something like it.
