diaries

only me and my isolated thoughts
if i deleted instagram
will i still be a photographer
if i don’t use hashtags
do i still shoot on film
if i don’t post my work
have i done any
what if i just stopped shooting
what if i just finished that apprenticeship
as a landscape gardener
that was the hardest thing i didn’t finish
just like school
i held my weight in a physical debate
but i didn’t graduate
distracted by family issues,
love and popularity
took me 5 years
to see it with some clarity
life is what you make it
everyone has feet of clay
the cool kids
have bad days
even bad kids
have good days
life is like a movie
improvise ur role
act on your own
see how it goes
don’t watch others
or
you’ll get lost
&
forget what matters
