Katy


The soft pollen air

Lifting an anvil off my chest

As my bare feet swing to the sky

I remember that there are good parts to life

 

As I fall back into the hammock

I feel the strings creak

Wincing that I may of made it fall

But knowing they would never let me down

 

As the grip from my neck releases

I can finally speak

I realize I am home

In Katy
