Then I dreamed a funny dream.
I was everywhere out there,
Making quite a scene.
I was contraire without care,
Lungs stealing air,
Feet left bare.

I was a howl on open road
A lover to many others,
I was stuck in hopin’ mode.

A child missing mother

Pray for me

Would it
For me
If you
Only
It’s
In
I

There’s this new deal at the village, we should eat there sometime!
