When Growing Up Was Easy
5:04 PM Posted In friendship , life , Love , Music , poetry , summer Edit This 1 Comment »I remember the time
We were down by the lake
In the dark–
The hot heat smothering us
The night stars settling us–
With our friends, your family,
And we were all together
And we were all together
But somewhere in the moments
You and I were alone.
Alone in our voices.
Alone in our thoughts.
You would sing the ABC’s
And I would sing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star
Till you got to ‘QRS’
Where I’d subconsciously forget my role
And sing your lines instead.
We’d laugh.
We’d laugh.
We could tell the tune was the same
But we kept singing it,
Kept messing it up,
Kept laughing.
Because everyone was around us
But in those moments
We were utterly alone.
