Debtor’s Valentine

The cost of being me
I can’t possibly repay
A sea of bills and IOU’s
To names and businesses I don’t
Even remember anymore
One here for a summery fall day
Sailing apparently the shoreline
Of Chicago extra wind in our hair
Which proves I didn’t completely
Imagine that though clearly
I had no idea at the time
How expensive it would be
But worth every penny and prayer
Just to be there
