A Good Little Girls Zine

What. Will. Happen. To. You. And. I.

Will I do what I always do, what I’m so used to doing?

Will I be different, courageous?

Will I see the reigns are not–no matter how much they felt like it– in my hands?

Will I allow us to evolve without trying to control, manipulate the end results?

Will I let it, let us lie–free of my tight grasp that I keep saying is in the name of love?

Will I–

will

I

to act without my need to hold you tight

Will

I

let go and feel the breeze of next

Will

I.
