Water out
electricity out
Holiday
and sore news;
a culmination of things
and I cried myself sick.
Time with my lover
my only savior
that he doesn't hold back
that I
am free in his arms
pressed to the kiss, giving
innately I need to give.
Then more
more
always am I bearing more.
And to choose the hard road
at this age, but…
Daddy said
just follow your dreams,
he sacrificed so much and never did
but if I can follow mine…
he said
all those years…
just follow your dreams.
