I miss heading home from grandmother's house Drifting to sleep as my favourite song plays on the radio I miss hotel staycations and my most-worn blouse And my parents being there to guide me to where i had to go I miss watching afternoon cartoons on a summer day As my mother turns the AC on to keep the heat away I miss all my childhood pets whenever i see the scratches on the door And yet i cannot even remember some of their faces anymore I miss fast food birthday parties with those cardboard hats I miss the hectic mornings of the first days of school I miss dancing in the guest room at Kat's I miss fearing the deep end of the pool From playground fights and Baguio kites To simple lunches at the mall I wonder why i was ever discontent when i've had it all Moments that i took for granted Times i won't forget It seems like i've lived such a life But it isn't over yet With precious memories like these, there are still more to come I'll stack them all like bricks that form into my own kingdom.

To Miss
I miss heading home from grandmother's house Drifting to sleep as my favourite song plays on the radio I miss hotel staycations and my most-worn blouse And my parents being there to guide me to where i had to go I miss watching afternoon cartoons on a summer day As my mother turns the AC on to keep the heat away I miss all my childhood pets whenever i see the scratches on the door And yet i cannot even remember some of their faces anymore I miss fast food birthday parties with those cardboard hats I miss the hectic mornings of the first days of school I miss dancing in the guest room at Kat's I miss fearing the deep end of the pool From playground fights and Baguio kites To simple lunches at the mall I wonder why i was ever discontent when i've had it all Moments that i took for granted Times i won't forget It seems like i've lived such a life But it isn't over yet With precious memories like these, there are still more to come I'll stack them all like bricks that form into my own kingdom.
