The Younger Me Poem by Jade chiKahn

The Younger Me



Yonger then, older now
It's so funny how
When I was 3, I always thought
That it would take forever for me
To be thirteen

But here I am
Standing tall
Looking back on it all
Time flies
Most people don't realize it
But it does, yes it does

I remember when
I wore barrattes
They were so pretty, so shiny, and yet
Now I've outgrown them
They're too small

Now here I am
Sitting, writing out of my head
The thoughts, the words of the past
The younger me
Thinking of way I used to be

You know
Times were different back then
Everything was cheaper, nicer
When I was a kid
Now people today

They take stuff for granted
Nobody appreciates anyhting anymore
Everyone throws everything away
Like it was never there

Memories, sweet, sweet memories
Are overcoming me
Like an eternal flame
It would be nice if I
Could just travel back in time
And just be the younger me
