Remembering
As I am now,
I am 19-years-old with no agenda to my name.
There is nothing to make up for my life,
Except a harsh knowing reality
That I,
Am no longer young.
However, on a silver moon and a blue sky,
I can feel my senses when I was five.
The soft shapes squish against my rigid teeth.
Cardboard bricks stack together neatly,
The smell of a gallon bag infested with withering crayons.
Creaking swing-sets,
Crinkled popsicles,
Sparkled stickers,
Nauseated bubble gum medication.
I miss you.
I miss the blind happiness I had
The way scents lingered into my senses
The plush welcome of a friend
The automated voice of a secret diary.
I mourn my child
