I don't understand
Why you're clinging so desperately to the past
While I want nothing more
Than to throw it far away

You know
I told myself
That for the remainder of high school
I would not date
I would not get crushes
I would not let myself get ****** in
To the drama that is
Teen romance
Then you waltz in
With your baseball jersey
Goofy ways
And lopsided smile
Poking me
And tickling my sides
Chasing me down the hallways
Yelling loudly
And obnoxiously
And funnily
Making me rethink
Everything

//

Day

The dreams linger
as we
                          Hesitate

Standing outside OUR DOOR

•
( it's so hard to go on !  )
•

The Great Sun rises but we remain

Standing so
Still

•

Isolated
( broken of Will )

•           •           •

Let us find COURAGE

Let us FIND EACHOTHER in the darkness

Let us renew the SACREDNESS of our VOWS

Let us reclaim OURSELVES

From out the buffoonery of these days

••    ••

I still LOVE

I step from the Shadowy DOOR
&
Walk the street

ARE YOU HERE?

We shall be HERE together

We shall prevail

We shall prevail
For our children's sake

I feel
invisible

A ghost
in a crowd

I feel
trapped

Tangled in
a web of thistle

Today feels
bad

Sick and
long
