when i was younger it'd put my arms in my shirt and told people i lost my arms. i would restart the video game whenever i knew i was going to lose. i would sleep with all my stuffed animals so none of them got offended. i had that one pen with six colors, and tried to push all the buttons at once. i poured my soda in the cap and acted like i was taking shots. i would wait behind the door to scare someone, but soon leave because they were taking too long or i had to pee. i would fake being asleep so my dad would carry me to bed. i used to think that the moon followed my car. i would watch those two drops of rain roll down the window and pretend it was a race. i used to swallow fruit seeds and get scared to death that a tree was going to grow in my tummy.
remember when we were kids and couldn't wait to grow up?
what were we thinking?
