I remember my early days
lived near a big lake
street were full of friends
tag and catch were
Enough to entertain

A friend was specially close
I remember
punching and pinching
back and forth

Though I can recall his face

I was too young
when i moved to a new space

A life wrapped in
laughter and cry
first met dilemma of life

Though new place was better
than old
and building was taller than before

It was hard to breathe for a while
I definitely left something behind
The emptiness subsided with time
I moved on to a new life

That's the first lesson
taught by the town I used to live
