Books and clothes and three posters,
packed neatly into the back of my truck.

All my possessions, with room to spare.
Enjoying the breeze,
the sound of my sister baking a pie,
the sound of my mom alternating between advice and tears.

Watching the sunset, through the pine trees, these pine tress,
I grew up with them,
I am made of them and they love me.

Tight hugs, and a farewell nod,
I love you I love you and won't you come visit? And here, I bought you this book, here, I bought you a $50 Safeway gift card

and oh
and oh goodness, it's too much
all my friends, they're too good to me
and I'll miss them, I'll miss them as much as I'll miss my little sister, and she cried and cried and told me not to go, and how can I break a six year olds heart?


Into the unknown, with my bestfriend.
Trailing him on his next adventure.
