When I was younger
I'd
put my arms in my shirt and
told people I lost my arms.
I would restart the video game
whenever I knew was going to
lose.
I would sleep with all of my
stuffed animals so none of
them would feel left out.
I had that one pen with six
colors, and tried to push all
the buttons at once.
I poured my soda in a cap
and acted like I was taking
shots.
I would wait behind the door
to scare someone, but then
leave cause they were taking
to long or I had to pee..
I would fake sleep so my dad
could carry me to bed.
I used to think the moon
followed my car.
I used to watch those two
drops of rain roll down my
window and pretend its a
race.
I used to follow fruit seeds and
be scared to death that a tree
would grow in my stomach.
Remember when we were
kids and couldn't wait to grow
up?
What were we thinking?
