free from the human tragedy
laughter comes quite easily
more than comedy,
it heals, frees, sets in place
the one thing needed,
magically, love

what goes up
must come down
so refrain
from sticking foreign
objects
where they do not belong

Am I selfish for wishing you
would learn to tether yourself to me instead?

If waves were miles and each break an hour,
we could pretend to know math and call it
science, based on sands that have pulled us closer
and this collision of horizon I childishly wish
would be you and I.


I promise to keep you together
much better than she ever did--

- To not be broken about it,
and to teach you that making someone
love you
isn't your "fault".

This is not my place,
however,
and I am just waiting for history to
reset.
I liken our young teenage writers here to rose buds
Then visualize those rose buds in full bloom
