Memorial Day
         2019 edit

Janet Kuypers
Instagram and twitter poem, written 5/29/00, edited 1/17/19

So here I sit
a decade ago I wrote
about my dad, I wrote
about boyfirends,
I had no idea
of what life had in store for me
and now I sit here with my husband
and I live on the other side of the country
and he has no idea what I think
and I don’t know how to tell him

          Isn’t communication
          supposed to get easier
          when you get older
          when you have so much
          experience under your belt

isn’t it supposed to get easier
