sumpthin'

and though i never had the conversation
i had already envisioned
how it would end
a thousand roads
leading up to the words
"i understand,
you are free."

I don't do so well with that conversation.

Irish Gumbo said...

Free...with all the power and vulnerability that entails...

Free to hurt or to cherish the recipient of the words...

Free...to collapse or to grow...

Freedom may be rather rough, at times, but it is a two-way street. Drive, she said.
