Traveling through changes that trigger unknown fears. Money's gone, sleeping on couches while seeing tears in reflected mirrors. Moved from Los Angeles to Minnesota within an emotional roller coaster. Moved away from a overcrowded and overheated toaster. Popped out into a different world reconnecting with family I have missed. Trying to rebuild my life and wake up from my terrified bliss. Less traffic, more space. New dreams to chase. I'll always love LA, but it's overpriced and not what it use to be. I can live here now and feel healthy and free. I must accept change with courage and faith. Must embrace the things I love, stay away from the things I hate. Through music and poems. Finding my true home.

The optimism in your phrasing as you describe your transition into your new environment was nice to see. I really liked some of the earlier lines in particular, especially when you used “popping out” in the line immediately after mentioning how L.A. is like a toaster. I hope the move’s been for the best!
