These are all stories
Little anecdotes anyone could have
Moments shared to know we aren’t alone
So, I write because I know the answer
The ones who look know too
The romanticized answer
The one the hopeful see
I won’t say it and I never will
It will stay thoughts
No vibration adding to the atmosphere
It doesn’t matter why
The piece that matters is I wasn’t very good
But I am going to be
Because here is where I am
And for the first time in a long time
I want to stay
Fact.
