April's Fool
I get caught half way out the door. I've never been good at knowing when to walk. I thought, somehow, I'd fall into place. When you're young, you don't realize how every step is mapped out for you by a million helpful hands waiting to pull you their way. You think life is something that works itself out. Because it is...when you are young. But time is setting traps for you. Once you plant a seed, you begin to tend your garden. I was dancing sunflowers in June. But it only took one good winter starve to scare me straight. I've got secrets yet to tell. But the same roots that keep me fed, pull me under.
