We’re all nothing but walking paradoxes, and I love it!


As you lift me on your wings

And away from my home

I realize my body is not all I will leave

I will leave the job of my mother’s dreams

And along with that, a life filled with grief

I will leave a fickle wife who never loved me

And along with her, kids that were no kin to me

How I imagined a life ending it were lived as a lie.
