im still surprised

sharp blue sky
wind whipping your hat off 
and your hair in your eyes
im still surprised
to have friends
to rant over coffee 
about the weather
about my mother
and the people 
that try to manage me
and the fact that my jeans 
have no front pockets. 

and your drawings 
& doodles are much cooler than mine 
it’s hard to draw a straight line
or even find a pen 
but im still surprised 
to have found a friend 

everyone cries on the steering wheel 
everyone squints when the sun hangs low
i turn my face to the sun and know
that while we still have 
roads to walk
& work to do 
maybe i laugh too fast 
and speak too soon
but it keeps getting better
and im still surprised 
to have found a friend
