I took some time You knew at sight I knew we’d fight You crossed the line I’ve tried my best You’ve had a few I’ve paid the dues You’ve got the rest I’ll bear the weight You’ll bare the cost I’ll still be lost You’ll still be late I’m in our bed You’re overseas I’m in the weeds You’re on my head I grab the wheels You’re home at four I’m out the door You’re on my heels

Parents Before Parenthood: 11
I took some time You knew at sight I knew we’d fight You crossed the line I’ve tried my best You’ve had a few I’ve paid the dues You’ve got the rest I’ll bear the weight You’ll bare the cost I’ll still be lost You’ll still be late I’m in our bed You’re overseas I’m in the weeds You’re on my head I grab the wheels You’re home at four I’m out the door You’re on my heels
for J. P. -- the ones that teach you, who lift you up over their heads in good faith; these are their stories.
