explore

As a little girl, I passed out on the floor

Eyes wide open, I still saw what’s yours

My ancestors were painted on the walls

So I believed it when I met them all

The worms lives ended as my only friends

But imagination never hit its end

And I still count the beads on my rosary

But something changed inside of me

I forgot I wrote a letter in my side drawer

I wanted my faith to be worth fighting for

And I mourn the world I chose to explore

Because life keeps saying it wants more

She spent the night in the woods

She cast a spell because she could
