daddy by Kalikala Smithremember the games we used to play?
remember you didn't play for very long,
because you were too tired...
too bored...
too self-absorbed.
remember the songs we used to sing?
remember how much i'd laugh,
and how quickly it stopped,
because you were self-conscious,
or something.
remember the talks we used to have?
remember you thought that i,
didn't know about life,
because i was only 16,
and i didn't need to know you were leaving me.
remember the day you moved?
remember how confused i was?
remember how much it hurt for me to see you go?
remember how i couldn't stand the fact,
that i was more grown-up than you?
