When I was Young - Lily Goldfarb
The wind.
Her white, pristine shoes.
Now sandy.
New green grass
Like when she was
young.
Old memories, just like new,
with every push into the sky.
Remembering.
When she sat on the rickety swing,
Like when she was young.
She has been here before.
Knowing.
Feeling invincible.
Entering the
sky.
Again, Again.
Higher, Higher.
So young at heart.
Was that only
When she was young?
