I Believe
December 12, 2013
I believe
That Family never ends
With Blood
They are the shoulders I cry upon
The secret holders
The lone few I’d take a bullet for
I believe
That Family never ends
With Blood
They are the solid oaks
The words within the books pages
The stripes tattooed to my favorite sweater
The Sword.
The Shield.
And the chainmail.
I believe
That My Family never ends
With Blood
They are my sanctuaries
My secret gardens
My cherished old photo albums
My favorite and beloved books
The ones I've read over and over again.
This.
I.
Believe.
