i love this baby
he's one of my twin cousins & our attachment has grown to unhealthy levels
i miss him so much it hurts but on thanksgiving he spent the day in my arms
sometimes, i miss the innocence that is embedded in childhood
i miss the happiness and worry-free holiday sprirt
i miss believing that a man in a red suit put my gifts under my tree
i miss the ignorance of not knowing that some people aren't as fortunate as me
everything, the whole world, was one big happy place
all families were just like mine..
oh, childhood
did you know i miss you? (x7) ;)
anyway..
Shooting stars are miles away
From a town where darkness falls
The morning comes with sounds of light
Reflecting off my walls
I hear their voices from distant fields
Like satelittes in space
Their energy radiates like sunbeams
At a rhythmic uniform pace
But something triggers a memory
From days so far away
That urges time to rewind itself
To a sunny childhood day
Now the rain falls from the sky
Making a mirror from the street
Looking down, my eyes remember
Being closer to my feet
My eager mind wished for wings
I said, “Grant my wish to fly”
The stars remained just specs of light
In a dark and soundproof sky
I've misplaced the innocence but found the time
To let the music play
It's there to save me when shooting stars
Are miles and miles away
a quick and simple thought. at least i made it rhyme.
