Thoughts.

I remember when lost in someone else's beauty I felt good
About myself
When I was just me 
And there was nothing wrong with it
When you were there
When you were a part of it.

I remember a time when it felt so right
Just walking down the streets
Streets so hated now and ever since 
Not because of then
Because after then they became strange and evil 
In their emptiness.

I remember when I didn't have to try
To be the best that I could
Because I already was.
When I was loving your teeth 
And you called me your rose
As we walked in the cold.

I remember feeling my soul next to your shoulder
Unstained in its joy of life 
Candid like the purest love 
I felt for you
So innocent in its wilderness
So close to the precipice. 

I remember a time when seeing through you
Was so natural and easy 
When you radiated towards me
And there was no way for me to escape
A time when unawareness 
Was making its way to ruin the remains of my childhood.
