You wonder how these things begin...
well this begins with a promise.
it begins with a young girl's head
where love is real and romantic
and unpredictable
try to see her.
not in your mind, for it is blind.
but see her with your mouth.
her thin, veiled yearning for a friend.
and hear her with your gut:
the 'soundless sound' of
a stubborn toddler
defending her right NOT to share
