the child leaving home

it's not overnight.
although it
feels like
it as i click the tab to publish.
there it goes.
a childhood dream
of sorts.
one book out
there into
the world.
a thousand words collected
and named
numbered.
and then sadness
sets in.
strange how that is.
not unlike a child leaving
home,
for his life to
begin.
