My

i fell in love
emotions and motions
blurry and heartbeat fast
colors lit fires in my head
words burned like logs
and kept me warm
why would i move from here?

i fell in love
with sneaking out
to grope with the moon
and in alleys we prayed together
to the same creator

i fell in love
and divorced my family
i married the streets and lived
with our offspring of words
the world slowed down all about me
and at last i was free.
