Description Dad,

It started with a boy.
spiraled into love and descended
headlong
swandive
somersaulted
into something so deep and true

it scared you half to
death

like the makeup you found
hidden behind the Barbie dolls;
like the new bra in the
plastic bag on the floor
forgotten before
the morning
fruit loops;

yes
these
must
have
sent
your
heart
racing

it scared you half to
death

that I’d grown up
before you’d even
known, even realized,
even pondered,
who I

was

and what I could

be

It ended with a sigh.
so long and deep and
sad for time
lost

it scared you half to
death;


Love, me.
