i was walking in the city
and i met a boy from juno, alaska
he walked faster than me
but somehow i kept up
he liked that, i think
but then i went that way
and he went this way
soon enough i came across another
he was from nowhere
he talked about a little dog
"about this big
blinked at you like this when he looked up at ya"
he blinked for me
open
close
open
close
the wind blew against my cheeks
and into my hair
it never left
ya it's still there
and sometimes
when every single moment
of every single day
becomes this entire act of beauty
its a bit overwhelming
and all i can do is sit right here in this room
and do my best not to break
