we'll do it all, everything on our own

as i sat in spanish class, i fumbled through my backpack to find a pen. and upon searching, i stumbled upon the silver chained necklace with the winged skull pendant that has lied dormant in the inner pocket for months. i took it out for the first time since i had last used it for luck and wrapped it around my wrist twice, the way i wore it when i received it months ago.

it was from a student. he had wanted me to keep it and to give it to someone else who needed luck and hope. but i did not feel right. so he told me that i could keep it until our paths crossed again.

while my professor spoke about "algunas" and "mandatos," i thought of him. and the others. and all of them. and how long it feels like it has been since we were all together. but how it has really only been a few months. how life moves on in such a short amount of time. and how i miss them. incredibly.

but this is all the time i can spend thinking about this past. i have reminisced and felt loss and felt sad. now i must move forward. so i can be present in this current moment.
