That these images have been part of my life is too surreal I walked through Italian cobbles Rested my head over canals Bought a pastry each from the Lidl With the same pack on my back then That's hanging on my bedpost now Fields in Maine I never knew blueberries looked like fire in October or that wine and cheap chocolate are best at the boat dock in a thunderstorm I soon discovered three feet of snow is the same as six and sea glass calls to everyone I have wished and pleaded for every gift, but all I'm gaining is... questions Like what place can hold me up And who will not hold me down I tried too hard not to need people now I only love myself
