Talisman tentacles top the tall trees
towering, tottering, tenuous. These
tree trunks the torsos, tendon twigs tacked;
tethered together - this temporal tract.
'Tween troposphere, terra. 'Twixt tundra, the tide.
Trained, tutored, thus taught, though thoughtlessly tried.
Tumble-leafed tone, til tranquil threadbare,
Turned tessellate tricks, to throne thriving there.

I want to grow
I want to grow and I’m going to grow. I’m not going to be this version of myself anymore and you won’t know who I become. You won’t talk to her, or be by her side as she goes through life— you won’t know her. Her heart won’t even remember the small moments that’ve clung to it for so long. I’ll watch her embrace a new life that has nothing to do with you, and there won’t be a space waiting like there has been for far too long.
