When I am just sitting alone. I think about my family.
And about how much I miss them.
And how in High School I didn't really understand that they were
the most important thing.
And how long it has been since I got to spend time with them. Real time.
Enough time to get annoyed at stupid things.
I start thinking about..
How long it has been since my mom cooked me a meal.
How long it has been since my brother and I have had a decent conversation
face to face.
How long ago it was that my mother and I stayed up late watching movies.
How long ago it was that my little sister gave me fashion advice.
I crave it. I need it. I need that western washington breeze to blow over my face.
I miss the constant rain. I miss the house I grew up in. I miss the trees.
The daffodils and tulips.
I need to be home so I can stay young and protected from this world.
I don't want to grow up.
OOO I so agree. Growing up sounds horrible, but it seems to slip in at night when you are sleeping and it unfortunatly just dosen't go away when you wake up.
