A Legend

i'll always remember our walks in the field

we'd spill our hearts to each other.

your shoulder would be wet with my tears,

you'd hold me for eternity, it seemed,

you'd smile all the while,

glad to be of help.

i'd call you,

“i'm scared, there's someone outside.”

five minutes later, a red F-150 would

speed into the driveway.

those crazy rides,

laughing, speeding down 41.

you're a legend in my book.
