Freedom of Youthfulness
Innocent, free and secure. Loved and protected, I can still smell the warm spring daises to this day. The feeling of serenity captures me, makes me remember. It was only us three, everything had the touch. Had no worries, nothing to avoid I assumed the worst would never come my way. I can still feel the wind swoosh in through the window and chill my short legs from beneath the table where i ate. I can still taste the watermelon i feasted on, quenching my mouth and filling me with happiness. Sitting on the old rugged carpet entertaining her, different sounds, different objects, everything was still new to me . Many precious memories lost, yet i feel as if they're still submerged inside of me. Many people lost, never get them back, but they're within me . The change feels as if for the worse, and i can only will myself to hope things will return. Recently I feel artificial, superficial, and mostly unreal, or as if i have become lesser or even no more. Will i ever fulfill those greedy memories once more? Honestly I don't know, but the knowing of not knowing hurts the most. I look forward to the backwards. Can i please absorb the youthfulness of us once more? So open, yet ignorant, I am willing, but can life be willing for me?
