As a kid I wondered things that I now know.
I grew up in fire and ice, also loving snow.
My brother and I have always argued,
But never have had hatred.
loving my family will be forever
We will always be glued.
When very young I had but one friend
Everyone else I just wished would end.
One day I was pulled away from the life of Indiana
No longer was I in kentuckiana.
Felt sad
Mad
Bad
Trying payback I had.
eventually I realized that this life in paradise wasn't so bad.
more friendships along the way,
paradise was a yay.

it was like a hundred ninety-nine degrees
lightheaded and pink cheeked in the Kentuckiana heat
both of us dazed out in a Lisa Frank fantasy
blistered from our faux-leather high heels and flustered from the way she'd glance at me

well somebody wish me luck or send thoughts and prayers my way
cause this girl's got a way about her
shamelessly sharing dreams of running away (together)
escaping the life of midwestern royal freaks
and settling into normalcy

somewhere in the upper peninsula,
two modern, headstrong girls secretly sharing an apartment
maybe even a kitten
maybe even love

— The End —
