"You must not ever stop being whimsical. And you must not, ever, give anyone else the responsibility for your life."


The sweater I left
Out in the cold
Was only the best
The best of you


Couldn’t bear to see it
A sight to behold
Be held, be felt
Cradled anew


Eyes watched from the window
A stranger picked it up
Let out a sigh
Of dragon’s smoke


And much to the amazement
Of my eyes, awestruck
The fabric was torn
The sweater awoke


For everyone watching
Through foggy lids
Watching and waiting
for something new


There was steady disappointment,
But not for me
I always saw
The real garments of you
