two put me here

first four twenty
in twenty-sixteen
new number to remember
when writing daily
shouldn't be hard never is
or so they say
so I don't worry anymore
and even if I do
I try harder to put it aside
and push on through
the day no one is here
except the two that put me here
and they don't know what
to tell me after all these years
they have done everything
they could and more no doubt
first twenty-four in twenty-sixteen
won't tell me much still alone
and content more than lonely
content to know I still have
to be a better me for me
as the new one rolls in
and I roll up if I chose
to leave the neighborhood
always felt safe in this house
content in the mind
which has become my home again...
