Yesterday

[synapticjava]

Yesterday I crawled for the first time.
I crawled to the stairs.
I fell down into tomorrow.
Yesterday I took my first step.
I walked to the oven in the kitchen.
I burnt away my innocence.
Yesterday I got my first bike.
I went for a ride.
I took a wrong path and lost myself.
Yesterday I made my first friend.
She said my bike was stupid.
She stole the first piece of myself.
Yesterday I met my first crush.
I confessed my feelings.
I suffered my first heart ache.
Yesterday I had my first kiss.
I learned how to tilt my head.
I lost a little more then.
Yesterday I matured.
I was confused and scared.
I lost what youth I had left.
Yesterday I left home.
I got to be independent.
I got to learn loneliness.
Yesterday I learned about love.
I felt those grown-up feelings.
I learned what it was to lose.
Today I learned time.
I finally felt its pressure.
I found yesterday is forever gone.

Beautiful Poem Brad, simply beautiful. It has a lot of what I am feeling, or have been feeling the last couple of weeks.
