Many years have passed
Wearing away at my soul
Yet I will never forget
Those 2020 backyard nights we spent
Collecting acorns and playing tag under sunset skies
As the world I once knew came crashing down
It has been five years since then
Yet I still do not know
How I carried the weight of the world
With such innocence
There are days and nights
When I still think of you
And I smile
Because even if you’re gone
I know you’re happy now
You never truly leave your hometown
You carry pieces of the past in your veins
And you begin to reminisce when you bleed
In your darkest moments
You are the same child you were all those years ago
i. So many people
Go through so much
And no one notices
