In four years
I will be grown
I will no longer be a little kid
Sitting in my father's truck
A ford from 77
That he sold that when I turned thirteen
Even though he promised it to me
In four years
I won't live in the house
My parents bought when I was six
I won't drive through the hill country
With my parents
And I'll wonder to myself where the time went
In four years
I'll look back on these days
Like fond memories of the past
But currently they are moments
But with each second
They pass
So slowly they go by
And now I think to myself
Along with everyone else
Why does the time go by this fast
Grown Up

What is left
[This is a reposted edited version of a previous poem of mine.]
when all we have is spent–
what will we have left?
people once before us– -
down the street
i walked down the street
the streets i once used to know
filled with regrets and heavy with burdens
of what once happened here
i walked down the street
a block or so down -
Dear god, am I real?
I believe in god even though I may know he doesn’t exist
I know the mountains were not formed by him
Instead it is the science in the world
The reason we are here in this moment
