Who Taught You That?

Remember learning to ride a bike?

How after countless crashes into walls

Parents, friends, cousins,

Laughter, shame, and shy smiles,

You never thought you’d pedal miles with an unusual grace

Sometimes one-handed

Very rarely throwing both hands up

Handlebars swaying

Feeling like you’re 7 again

Training wheels off wondering if you’d fall

And not caring if you do

Cause scraped knees heal

They bleed and they expose our human

But they heal

Who taught you that?
