I’ve missed you
The first snow
an inch
maybe two
bundled up
I drop on my back
in the snow
and slowly
begin making a snow angel
I’ve missed you
Trust
How do you learn to trust
after you have been taught not to
that question touches everything
if you let it
Freedom
I am not a child
I do not need a babysitter
if you must
treat me like a teenager
I will text before I leave
I will text when I get there
I will text when I leave
I will text when I get home
and you don’t have to worry
and I get to be free
a little longer
