WHIRLWIND

Double Double This This: I inflate and deflate

Double Double That That: I gasp and gasp

Double This Double That: I clench my chest and hold on tight

Double Double This That: I repeat and hope I’ll be alright

There are moments that define us.

Moments that give us a glance at the people we are and will become.

But, if you zoom in on the fine details you forget to acknowledge and appreciate all the beautiful milestones that led you to now.

Double Double This This: Look at her smile

Double Double That That:  Look at her laugh

Double This Double That: Look at her accomplishments, making it big here and there

Double Double This That: Look at her take the world by storm
