i miss pretending to be older than i was, by carrying some of the groceries,
wearing red lipstick i wouldn't go near today, nail polish to match.
now i want to pretend it is three/fourths of this lifetime of mine ago.
i want to cry and sleep and play and whine and get piggy back rides, and get paint all over.
i want tattoos i can wash off, but never would. i want bedtime stories i never heard the end of, excuses to stay up late, not responsibilities that leave me no other choice.
nap time, snack time, play dates, mary-kate and ashley movies, on the big screen.
hugs everyday from my mom, my dad, from everyone i see!
kisses every night, from all of the above.
wagons with fans and cool headbands.
songs with kazoos and afternoons with "Blue"
a shoe a shoe, NO a clue a clue.
collecting rocks and getting married under monkey bars.
I want to wake up and have to Figure it Out.
i would like to dream , and be, and still have the anticipation of this.
