26- i'm taking you home and making you mine

in the country i can't help but think of
nothing
there is an absolute calm about it
and my best friend is everywhere
we go to dinner
we go farm and play w/ the dogs and kittens
and we collect the chickens' eggs
and talk and talk and she shows me this summer's
gardens and we laugh and we sigh and make our way
inside and this is what i mean when i say we are unstoppable

this year i was so worried for my birthday/ the abstract wants of fun and friends
and bigger is better and here in the softness of pennsylvania
i remember everything i was trying to forget
