fine by me

Beyond the four walls No one knew But me And I knew I had to set me free. I waved good bye Kissed my mom Stepped forth Through barbed wire Headed north. Mom's alone Sitting next to dad Her book A book of psalms. I step on stone And rolling rocks. Yosef waves And blows a kiss, Walks five steps Then waits again. Tears in his heart For I am a sister Leaving the family. Mindy cries for real Tears and tears and more tears. But not as many as mine For I know where I’m heading. I’m heading nowhere Leaving everyone And at the time It was fine by me.
