The poem lost and found which is: we have to accept being lost before we even think about being found and we have to accept that....

A friend takes me to an opera. I don't like opera. I go because I like her. Sitting in the darkness, voices entwine my heart, something breaks free in my belly and careens out, showering my body in goose bumps. A new me opens because of what is happening up on that stage. But Sam I am, I don't like opera. Not in the dark, not in a train, not in the rain. Here is what I believe: Life is an....
