this time around ---------------------------------- when we could be reckless breaking hearts, missing signals keeping secrets meant for disclosure making shit up & when we had time to make so many mistakes we had to redefine the term we did and took more wrong turns than our wheels could handle enough to know, to remember, to learn not to do that again or jump into empy pools or climb over steel walls, but this pool: taken full, filled & overflowing this pool is safe and these walls did their job enough and can now rest because we both know this time around is better so much better than before and too precious to break (c) 2016 douglas brent smith
