i have not quite learned, to love, or lose, or myself "these will be the best years of your life" echo in my mind over the sounds of my gasps for air, in between tears- sometimes from laughter, sometimes, more often, from loss, or perspective of it. pretending "yes i love it" "yes i'm having a good time" is not convincing me the only person, important in my own happiness; the hero of my emotions learning to say no, stop, over now learning to contain a shout, a judge, a scream not quite, but a little bit the [best] two years of my life have now so suddenly received a forecast of much rain and clouds always on the brink of hail.

the last two years
i have not quite learned, to love, or lose, or myself "these will be the best years of your life" echo in my mind over the sounds of my gasps for air, in between tears- sometimes from laughter, sometimes, more often, from loss, or perspective of it. pretending "yes i love it" "yes i'm having a good time" is not convincing me the only person, important in my own happiness; the hero of my emotions learning to say no, stop, over now learning to contain a shout, a judge, a scream not quite, but a little bit the [best] two years of my life have now so suddenly received a forecast of much rain and clouds always on the brink of hail.
