first in.

i was here.
first in. like some newfound,
and prize/won thing.

i walked here.
first in. like some light-winged,
and sheltered thing.

i ran here.
first in. to you. spilled and blue,
and insistent not.

i fell here.
first in. into this kind/stone land,
and cultured fast.

i stood here.
first in, still and unmoved,
and shattered true.

i walked forward.
first in, lost still,
and never-ending.

you ran away.
first out, scared and removed,
and fault/less still.

you shouted, screamed,
first out, dusted off chords,
and bell rang blues.

you gave up the ghost,
first out, shattered white,
and no faced moon.

i walked back/ward,
first in, regrets paused,
and no sure stance.

i moved in/ward,
first in, run-shy,
and no tried paths.

i stood place-home,
first in, last time,
and i slid down to me.
