Walking with my Father by Alicia VannStepping together
Toward starboard
Ship lights,
Distant
Never forgotten
Jersey salted seas
Just a spit from Sandy Hook
Where I wore a Navy uniform
Firmly uneasy
Walking, talking with you
Taking it in
Learning
I cannot walk
Your path
Deny me from ever
Knowing you
Understanding
Making sense
Of games
Being a part of the
Joke
Together in
Opposite
Directions
Forever and yet
Forever
Denying
We are in anyway
Together.
