I write poetry like you do but I'm a spark to your bonfire Look at pictures from your twenties as a future I desire Stories people tell me are all the facts I know Loving you is easy, but facing you's a blow. Your compliments mean everything but I grow up so fast Our connections keep on wavering, the gaps are getting vast There are no promises to break, so all that's left's my heart For you there's nothing but respect, yet fate ordains we walk apart.

an ode to the parent I continue to love
