years through you'sA Poem by ChemicalMadness
when i was five
your name was joy we danced in leaves impossible green you let me see you in trees you saw my skinned knees, heart we touched, as hands do at seven you were amanda estranged dark eyes like wet pavement in rain you lived with your father taught me how to fear my heart; sundry items not yet catalogued twelve was joanna's year in review: argyle socks tan skirts wandering minds just this side of slumber tenuously skirting alert your smile melted snowflakes my tongue was jealous oh seventeen where did you go? christy-amy-rebecca-ann marie who in the world could forget kelly touch and go in cars and loose shirts spending hours contemplating the genius of skirts and reveling in the apathy of parental denial fragments fall and flash - filaments of recollection recognition on a half life delay funny how a breeze off summer pools conjures light from so many lives away © 2013 ChemicalMadnessReviews
