So Human

I Miss you

Distant memories that seem like dreams

entertain us well into our adulthood

Remembering lemonade stands

with sliced lemons on the table

and a growing piles of

empty lemon flavored kool-aid packs

hidden underneath

remind us of our childhood

Everything was picture-perfect

when we were one

We were sounding out childhood together

and pulling each other along,

leaving no time for falling.

We dove headfirst

into all of our firsts.

Some together,

like first bike rides and first stitches

And some without the other,

like our first kisses

They were not the best we ever had

Still, I cherish them all

and I wonder if you do too
