Walking With Rachael

Walking with Rachael, looking for a bathroom

I heard there’s one in Macgregor Park that’s open

Empty swingsets, colourful structures

Playground in winter undisrupted

Like our conversations, free flowing

We could talk about anything that’s going on

And I’m grateful

Coffee with Nigel, he picked the terrace

Below the apartment where we used to live

Glasses clinking in the morning sunshine

While the light hit his eyes like it always did

Like our conversations, free flowing

We could talk about anything that’s going on

And I’m grateful

That I’m

Calmer than I was

Smarter than I was

Stronger than I was

Older than I was

Less angry than I was

Less anxious than I was

More grounded than I was

Happier than I was

Happier than I was

Happier than I was

Happier than I was
