Lost in the Woods

Remember,
In the woods,
We took hours finding our way
Through those vines
That grew from tree to tree

We were careful
Of spiders, snakes, thorns, and bugs,
But we weren’t afraid of each other.

That’s a nice way of being lost in the woods...
A way of bleeding, screaming, and being afraid…
Cut by thorns, 
Caught up in branches,
Stung by bees, 
Startled by spider webs,
Terrified of meeting the wrong snake…

Let’s make it through the woods again--
Together
