Walk With Me

It has been
a long period of silence.
Rusty looking, really.

I thought I hated you
I needed to flee
flee as far
as far
as I could.

Remember when you would lull me to sleep?
My mind won’t dream.
It refuses,
stubbornly,
as per the usual.

I realized my mistake.
How could I not? It burned.

A hole right through me.

How do I tell you? Life has
raised me, changed so much,
grew so fast.
I’m not actually tall.

Ah ha! This?
is it!
Personal, but
impersonal enough for all
persons
personism.

Hi. Take a walk with me?
