Just Be - Hannah Bevis
Just Be
A Collection of Poetry
In her beginning,
there were princess dresses and toy cars,
stuffed animals and scraped knees,
a sand table out back
and a sister to cradle.
There was time, and there was love,
and there she was,
living in it.
In my beginning,
there were Barbies in the wastebasket,
backyard adventures and LEGO pieces,
a baby blanket named Cassie
and insects in both hands.
There was time, and there was love,
and there I was,
living in it.
In our beginning,
there were thrift store clothes and first cars,
bonfires and yearbook pages,
homework that didn’t matter
and races to be run.
Time was ticking, and life was scary,
and she met me,
surviving in it.
Somewhere in the middle
of the open and the close,
stands the two of us,
tethered together.
Though we do not know the way,
we do know this -
in the beginning, there was you, and there was me,
and in the now,
there is us.
