Free verse № 18625
Ode to my childhood
Baggy jeans, baggy shirts, big long chains
Music no on listens to
Remember what they said:
Say no! be careful??of what?
Hidden walls in forests spray paint cans by the ton,
And smoking cigarettes
Run, run way, be careful!
You're not from here:
Foreign kids, foreign language
Equals strange, unwanted.
But I had fun, and they??????ll never know??????
Confusion, they'll never know,
Be happy, be fake
They'll never know what you wanted, what you saw.
Follow your heart, go home.
Grow, change, grow, see, listen,
Follow your heart,
They'll never know
