thinking about dc

thinking about dc
I drag life away
billowing blue
my sky tears
my eyes open
for tears;
sadness & joy.
Having once had you
now is the time
for something new.
I’ll ask and I’ll get
though I should be careful
I have not always wanted to be alone,
and now 5 hours from home
who will wait for me?
it won’t be her (really any of them)
but it should be safer this way.
