Popsicles | Things That Remind Me of my Childhood

I could talk to you about all of the things that went wrong in my life

But I don’t want to talk about the times I’ve almost lost my life

I don’t want to talk about how violent my dad loved my mom or

How lonely every room felt

I don’t want to talk about how I used to feel, about me

I don’t want to speak on the nightmares I had after every dream

I don’t want to talk about how I couldn’t eat

Or the problems that were going on inside of me

I don’t want to talk about the things that made me want to die

I don’t want to mention the bad memories

I want to mention the things that still make me feel alive

Like the popsicles I had every night and day

I want to talk about the feelings I had before the pain

And how the sunsets make me feel sane

Let’s talk about the sky and why it’s the greatest art or

That tune my parents played when I was little and I couldn’t ignore

I want to speak on greater things

Funny, how we were taught to complain

But I don’t want to talk about the times I’ve almost lost my life

…..I don’t want to be sad anymore
