But the words still find me
With my clenched fist
Reminding me
I have to keep swimming
They said
"There are better ways to move through the ocean than kicking"
So I hope when the pressure drops
I learn to stop panicking long enough
To float
Like life is the dead sea
And if I run into Andrea,
I am taking them with me

I hated Grand Marnier
Before I ever tasted it
Because she knew you
In ways that I didn't

If I keep folding
I am going to disappear
And before I loved my life
I really liked that thought
But now I am unfolding
And just when I thought
I was done with mourning
I notice the creases
Where my youth used to be
A reminder
that you almost broke me

if you give me some time
i will draw you a map
we can get lost together
and then find our way back
or we can sit in the dark
and talk about life
and when you are ready
we will search for the light

this foundation
barely holds its weight
I pick up building where you left off
thankful to you
that it didn't fall apart
but there are too many walls,
not enough beams
to support
and so much undoing
before rebuilding can start

If the Big Bang could mourn
do you think it would wish it was born less explosive?
It hurts to become
when you grow up destructive

This was too much to carry
I am letting it go
It was always too heavy
I've decided to float

started a revolution
to make the sun jealous
and it felt like redemption
to watch her sweat

all of these years
clenching my teeth
just hurt my head
it is swollen with grief

a punch in the tough
didn't make the boy leave
it just
scared him off
