Youth

I loved

That carefree child of mine

Who’d skip through endless

fields of flowers

Without a care in the world

I loved

Those sweet facetime talks

past 12 am

Giggling over nothing

Never getting caught by my parents
 

I loved

That small light of mine

Who’d shine so brightly

To the ends of the earth

I loved

Those memories through the years

The happy ones

With those true smiles of mine

I loved it all

And you took that away from me.
