Some people are destined to enter our lives, only to leave it.

little places

little trinkets sit inside little places

of the heart

of the mind

it's always the ones we don't have

that we treasure most

little places hold tiny little treasures

memories

fantasies

some mean nothing

some mean everything

so often we make little of others

only to ignore how big they truly are

to deny the impact they've had on us is anything but little

but we still hide them

in our little places

knowing that one day, they'll be there

waiting

just in case
