i dreamed you wanted to try again
even in my sleep i disagreed
you and me together
the same odds as before
i’d rather run than continue to stand
in one place where i’ll never get better
you or my future, which means more?
goodbye, love, ’til we meet again
-N. Trepiak
About The Author
I am a Humboldt local, and I enjoy writing poetry and hunting for agates along the California coast in my down time. In the more chaotic moments of my life, I take care of kiddos, lifeguard at a local pool, and study to (hopefully!) become an EMT. Poetry keeps me grounded through it all, and I’m grateful to have a writer’s group and this platform to share my work and connect with other poets.. Thanks for reading!
