Tip toeing around the sun
Silence so peaceful
Graceful sails into summer

The world was small,
but the days felt big.
They stretched out before me
like big, beautiful balloons,
just waiting to be popped.

Like a child,
sometimes I let one go -
a waste of something good,
but it certainly was eerily pretty
to watch float off into the ether.

You were just another mistake to learn.
