Chester~ An Anthology

The Arrival

When the car pulls up,

We’re already out the doors

Tripping over our own feet

Tired from a long day’s drive

But that won’t stop us now

It’s been a long year

Since I last drove away

But I am back here

I am happy, like I am only here

We all spin around on the steep gravel drive

I probably look like a stupid American girl

But that can’t stop me now

I am laughing like a fool-

We all are

And we couldn’t care less

If the world fell apart

Right now, as I laugh

I would keep on smiling

Because nothing can hurt me now
