compression
slowly pushing slowly pressing
slowly noticing the marks left on my
hands
on my
legs
on my
m-i-n-d
disappearing
a second skin
covered in words
I am shedding
this life
and starting anew
no
there is no water in my lungs
no
there is no string to bind me
no
there is no distance between my words
I am connected
I am collected
I am here
to finish what I started
to breathe
and not to forget
to exhale


_______________


It's been a couple months, and I'm not sure if you remember me.
But I'm back, and I'm happy.
And (hopefully) I am filled with words that I hope you will read once more.

Not sure if we remember you?  It is WONDERFUL to see you back and in fine form!  Home is where the heart is, and yours never left, little one.
