It's Happening

It had to happen

We had to put her in the stroller and

Bundle her up excessively

We had to erect every possible barrier that the stroller had to offer

Between the inside and

The world

We had to stay within quick sprint distance of the house

We had to be nervous

We had leave the house

So

I suppose

This has to happen too

Eventually

There are no home school fraternities and

I can’t hold her on my arm

Between my wrist and my elbow

Anymore

Of course

Right now

The burning behind my eye balls doesn’t stop

When I say

It has to happen

It had to happen
