You
Time has blown you away from me like strong winds,
And I can only hope that you don't forget what we have shared...
Seems like it was only yesterday when we were kids,
We grew up in the presence of each other , with each other, for each other.
You saw me getting my hair braided for the first time by your mom and teased me about it ,
I witnessed you crying over how you don't want to go school and teased you back.
And how you never let me leave your side for the whole day and I let you.
You would invade my territory unapologetically and couldn't help but to earn an eye-roll,
Nothing could discourage you to pull those little stunts of yours,
And I had to back you up every single damn time with no complaints.
I can only hold onto the thin string of hope hanging loose.
My life has been hectic, seems electric
but I've waking up with your voice in my head,
I'm trynna send a message and let you know that every single minute I'm without you , I regret it.
For you've witnessed the little girl beside you trying , failing and trying again'
And now she's thriving and you can't witness that.
Every day and every night , I've been thinking back on you and I.
How you're still shorter than me in the eighth grade and now you're so big that I can't even reach you.
Time has blown you away from me like the strong winds,
And it's just a wishful thinking to go back to us.
