BEFORE AND AFTER
Before, she
imagined
it would be
everything --
the sun at
Summer's Beach,
wind in her
hair, a taste
of ocean,
stars in the
soft darkness.
After, she
wondered, Is
that all it
is? He gets
want he wants
and I might
get pregnant?
We know that
innocence
is always
a long way
from wisdom
and now, yes,
she knows too.
