Looking at you sitting near me.
Wrapped up in your fuzzy little cacoon, umbilical cord resting softly on the seat between us. Tapping out a little song when we run over the bumps in the highway.
You,who is still connected, will not safetly understand my means of flight until you have taken scissors to your own body. Disattached the reasoning that founded your ways of measurement in the end. I turn down the radio. Enjoying your metronome breathing that is getting me through these miles. You are my spotlight. Held warm and glowing whenever you are near me. I am not the same woman without you.
You have tried to reach out for my arm sensing my storm underneath the calm that threatens to turn the truck on top of itself.your fingers run the inside of my elbow. skipping my skin in ways that only you know how to.
You are not scared.I have gone far away from our old destination and you are not scared. Loyalty like the edge of a knife.You alone give me clarity through the summersaulted numbers of my day. Interrupting my moments with pleasure equatable to Santa Claus.
I will gaurd you through this dark journey you have not reached as yet. Leave you tools, little lists and kiss-lined advice in the front pocket of your backpack. Know your own heart as if it were a map. For it will be the greatest compass you have ever sought to find. Get to know me as if i was your greatest friend.
Wear your sunscreen, and your helmet and drink lots of water.
Sneak out of your house There's a bottle of Reunite in the bushes with your name on it.Your girl has been showfferred to the park.
I love you.
