HOMETOWN.

Do you remember?

When we'd dance

In the moonlight

Was that real?

I can't feel

The same warmth I used to

Life was so different then

Had no obligations

Except you

Had no hesitation

I was bathed in that blue

Naive eyes pointed at the sky

Little did I know

That those dreams would die

A blistering second

A virulent moment

Girl I'm seeking atonement

I feel so old at 20

Is time running out?

Are these ambitions too heavy?

I'm feeling heady

What shall I do?

Perhaps I'll stay true

To myself

My hometown was once nothing but my bane

Now it's the only way that I stay sane

The best years of my life were living hell for others

Conflicting feelings that I should have smothered

Well maybe I did

2020-2021

Last time I felt like a kid

They're our first years together

I can still feel the weather

Those vast rays of sun

Beaming on my skin

Chocolate bliss

Sweat sliding past my grin

Back home late

Momma asking where I've been?

I laugh take the consequences on my chin

Times I never felt chagrin

Crazy how life can spin

A full 180

In a blink of an eye

A wrinkle in time

It's truly sublime
