I miss singing at the top of my lungs and swinging, feeling as if i was a bird. I was free there in that moment. I miss making mud pies and collecting bugs with my cousin. I miss bike rides around the same old block everyday. I miss the passion in my actions. I miss dressing up in a floppy hat skirt and shirt that didn't quite cover my flubby belly at the time and feeling like I was a model, feeling like I was the bomb dot com. I miss making mud slides and the tire swing. I miss the play fights and gun games and simply watching video games as my brothers wouldn't let me play. I miss feeling comfortable with the man who's ***** led to my life. I miss the ignorance my childhood Had kept me safe in. I miss being able to hug him, without cringing. And I miss being able to remember my thoughts. I miss my life before anything had ever happened. I miss when my mommy would ask has anyone touched you down there? And I could honestly say no. I do not miss the lies I told everyday I do not miss the feeling of never being able to open up. I won't miss the feeling of being a mistake. Nor will I miss the feeling of being a failure. I will not miss the feeling of disgust over my own body. I will not miss the jealousy my step father had with my sister she was his blood. I will not miss my mothers favoritism over Her first boy. I will not miss the memories that I cannot access. I will not miss the echo of words that should never have been uttered to a child. I will not miss the unknowing monster in my mind feeding myself ideas of what happened the snippets floating away. I will miss the feeling of a smile, the affection accepted from a loved one. But it won't matter will it i won't have the choice what I remember or miss I won't be here at all. What will you miss?
