Growing Into Personhood

How could I have let you
Lead where I was
Afraid to go-
How did you know?

dead of winter
no end in sight
when I saw you in the autumn sunshine
I thought I loved you
I did
Maybe
I think
I can�t bear the thought of
Not loving you,
For it would have made me cringe
To think I was so easily given
Lessons in the dark-
Self-respect, freedom, the right
To be me.

laughter, drunken laughter
floating on the gull�s wings
chilling spilling aching taking
dancing prancing feeling reeling
kissing, missing
It couldn�t have been me.

It�s easier to live with now
I know you�re being you.
I thank you for showing me
The road less traveled.
