If only the stars had come out in the day,
If only I knew what to say.
I used to be carefree.
I used to be the girl who did and tried everything.
But, now...
I am a shell.
I miss a life I have long ago left behind.
A life of laughing and hugging.
Singing and talking.
I remember a time of drinking Brutal Fruit
In my best friends house.
I remember,
Us talking about boys and...
I remember that last day,
Of pizza.
Truthfully, friend...
I miss the times we would spend.
We used to have sleepovers...
You remember that mattress I always slept on?
I remember...
Saturday mornings laughing and braaing.
I still can do my twenty-five times tables.
I remember...
Mornings talking about God in front of our class.
And friend,
I remember our song.
I used to have it on repeat.
Stranger with a past...
I find myself being last.
You lost yourself so fast.
Yet, you still see it...
Yourself.
How I do wish I could experience it all
All over again..
