Life isn't about how to survive the storm but how to dance in the rain.

I slept in castles and fell in love because I was taught to dream. ♥


Krakatau is black,
Like the soft sand on the beach we sank our feet in,
Ghostly smoke the volcano puffed up,
And the night sky covered in twinkling stars.

Krakatau is yellow,
Like the blazing sun shining above us,
The unique seashells the wave swept onto shore,
And the banana boat carrying excited shrieks.

Krakatau is baby blue,
Like the morning sky covered with white puffy clouds,
Fish that squirmed nervously past me,
And the salty ocean water we splashed in.

I went on a trip to the beautiful volcano/island of Krakatoa in Indonesia when I noticed colors jumping out at me through different things.
