$1.85, Please.

I took the bus to Louisville.
When i got to my room,
i ripped off my shoes,
and through myself into my bed.

Almost immidiately,
tears streamed out of my eyes,
and i wrapped my arms around my stuffed dog
[that my garndma gave me, back in the day]
and let it out.

Today was such a blur,
but it felt good to be home.
I cried with relief,
with angst.
with happiness.

And it was WAY overdue.

It doesn't matter what they say, in the jealous games people play!
