its amazing how alive you are

after all of this

After all of the abuse
(after me standing up for myself)

How do you do it?
How can you breathe in the fresh air
Without choking on me?
My recollections bare no vanity.

There's no time to waste darling.

How do you do it?

So smooth.
So quick.

Do you think about me?
When you take that Sunday drive?
When you smell the sewage down the road?

its amazing how alive you are.

Those first last words.
How they wrap around my spine.
Binded.

I can't bend down to pick myself up again.


Strength is a word.
Just as any other word.
So is love.

    I adore the mystery..
