i'm caught between the dreams that have always comforted me
and the excitement that unchartered desires brings.
my restless nights are now filled with sugar cane fields,
my hands marred by slashes and my eyes too dry to cry.
i know nothing of another world.
my restless days are now filled with medicaid forms,
my hands gripping tight to bills and my eyes too dry to cry.
i know things about both worlds.
which is better?
to be naive and unexposed
or to have dreams and expectations
succumb to nothing?
