The opposite, the beloved

​

The coveted

The mysterious.

​

Grow up. Grow tall. 

Drink. Learn. Obey.

Born and raised to

bear and refrain.

​

You, with your wandering limbs,

Curiously creep towards the sun

​

Face full

Eyes up

Arms outstretched

taking in every negative and

somehow

making it sweet.
