The stories I've heard about you
The stories about how you made the best buttermilk biscuits
The stories about how you made the the most mouth watering pecan pie during Christmas

The stories I've heard about how strict you with your daughters with your intimidating glare like a lion with its prey
The stories I've heard how you fought in the Vietnam war so you could get back to your wife and children
But when you came back you children were much older now
The distance and time between seemingly unbearable
The connection that you once had gone like a leaf in the wind
But the last story I heard was how you were unwilling to give up

But you heart gave up so I never got the chance to meet you...

I am a caterpillar. Utterly curious and eager to learn to new things. With the stage of transitioning still so far away.

With dreams I have every night, where I give a hug in my family. Without seeing them for two years.

I am from a small neighborhood near a lake and hiking trails with lots of trees.

I am a basketball, coming up and down throughout the day, unrhythmically like Duke Ellington's first song

# data[].attributes.body
With family struggles making us closer and tougher.

With money spent to buy a computer earned from work.

At times the large sea was silent and another moment the waves would begin to scream. Crashing in and melting along with the music.

After so many moves where am I really from?

# data[].attributes.body
With school, tests, more school, more tests, and then years of work, just to live

I remember you always fighting for whats best for me, even if you didn't always win.

I am a duck. It seems like everything is under control but in reality I'm kicking just to stay afloat

# data[].attributes.body
I'm from the lake, shining like the stars at night.

# data[].attributes.body
With a desire to know if life is meaningful
Without knowing if that's possible

# data[].attributes.body
Tall trees and large, snow capped mountains.

# data[].attributes.body
with a friend group getting smaller and smaller every year

# data[].attributes.body
without that spark that glistened from me at a young age, which dulled until it was entirely matted

# data[].attributes.body
With very bad nerves, what am I without them?

grinning from ear to ear, his shaggy hair almost covering his eyes
