Almost Something, Almost Everything

Can We Go Back?

Can we go back?

Back to the days when happiness was never questionable

Back to when bullying was failing to share chalk

Back to when the worst things boys could do was give you cooties, rather than a broken heart

Back to when scissors were only thought to be used for cutting paper

Can we go back?

Back to the days when we would send notes to each other in class instead of nudes

Back to coffee being a gross thing, your mom drank, and not your favorite Juul flavor

Back to bad words being, 'stupid,' and, 'idiot,' not, 'f*ck,' and, 'sh*t.'

Back to teardrops being over scrapped knees instead of due to the undeniable feeling of emptiness inside

Can we go back?

Just for a moment

I want to go back to the good ole days.

When everything was... easier

Before life got real and people became fake

Can we please go back, please?

I want to go back

I need to go back

Writers note: I have never actually used a Juul or anything like that, nor have I sent nudes. But I have plenty of friends that have/do. I do not support their decisions.
