Hey, Big Head

A poem about loving beyond the tension

Sometimes it seems so much easier to just go where we’re unknown.
To befriend those who know nothing of our past or our present
Secrets
To be around those we’ve never hurt
Who have never wronged us
It’s easier to start over
And welcome the new stares
The new admirers as we leave the old critics behind
But what good would that do?
We’d always be starting over
We’d always be learning what it’s like to…
