to the city that made me who I am today—

your inspiration never fails but flourishes

riding bikes throughout Brooklyn brings me back to being a kid, but also back to being 25

showing you off to my lover was inviting him into a big part of my world, offering insight as to my habits, pace, and creativity

thank you for feeding us, housing us, and bringing us to people we needed to connect with

I’m forever in awe. 29 years of life, 29 years of knowing you, and you never cease to wow me.

we made memories that will last a lifetime. I already miss you so much, New York. But I know you’re always there, waiting with open arms.

I love you. I love this city. I love the people who call it home and make their voices heard and art felt. No one compares to you.
