Safe

Patrick Hurley

If it were coming
would you know it
Walking in the woods
leaves crunch under footfalls
the smell
the smell
crisp air fills aungs
Her hair, the scent of autumn
she is in your arms
so small
so small
tears abate
your shoulder now damp
Simple
the events of life
Difficult
the events of life
You are her everything
She is in your arms now
safe
Her hair smells of freedom
this is freedom
you think
as she holds you close
tears abate
your shoulder dirty with
snot
Leaves, the scent of
leaves in her hair
I love you
I love you, too
daddy
