We’d hook pinkies
And promise
BFFs forever
Because an extra forever
Never hurts.
We’d hook pinkies
And promise
To keep secrets
Guarded at our heart
With our lips a (gullible) security guard.
We’d hook pinkies
And promise
That friendship bracelets meant
More than an hour
And some thread.
We hook pinkies
And it’s a promise
We don’t say out loud
Call it what you want
Take it as you want
I think
It’s love.
We used to be seven
My curls used to be sunshine
Colored
You used to be stubborn
Naive stubborn.
The powder used to hit our knees
On the days
When we could eat lunch in four bites
It’s:
twisted
crinkled like
the leaves
they’re frail now,
on the edge
of not there.
scrolling photos
feverishly
There are days when I fall asleep wondering about the line between stupid and brave.
Brave
Is a hero rushing into battle
Ready to fight
For their passion
Stupid
Is a hero rushing into battle
