This was originally a diff. poem but I didn't like it much-
this work entitled

"At 17"



So we travel You and I
Feel the tumult like a passerby

The anger of two
in your harsh lips i feel
Rough softness

– a brush
To rush and hush
Away the fear in you

No, step outside
with my love
Then
- step outside it too
Determinism is the coward’s lie
And you and I
I won’t cry

Though to our own love
I chant it still
Fatalistic folly am I
Amid the disaster of beauty
I believe in the duty
Though I am a liar
I can only rush through the fire

To get
to you.

Go first,
we’ll get farther then.
