Vow

I find me recognizable.
Though far-flung from where I hung
and sung for empty bars,
swung swift through lanes and cars,
now sat atop the highest floor
surveying all that came before;
encapsulated by a skin
that bears the scars of seasons past -
at last! At last! A chance to pass
and elevate my heart above,
re-educate my soul to love
in ways of yesterday’s amazement;
every day unfazed to face it.
Live the life that we created,
and fight like hell to never break it.
