I miss having the entire upstairs. I miss sitting on the futon on the landing outside of my room and writing. I miss having three closets. I miss the old fashioned doors I had upstairs. I miss climbing outside of my window onto the roof at night. I miss the outdated pink-ish red carpet. I miss the 70’s wallpaper and how the wall by my bed was different. I miss the silence. I miss the sound of the train going right by. I miss going out to the barn to practice trombone and play pool. I miss summers there. I miss walking home from school to the house. I miss how close town was, yet it had a special seclusion. I miss riding my bike to the cemetery. I miss the long gravel road behind the barn. I miss the willow tree. I miss the neighbors. Even “keep off my lawn” Mike. I miss the feeling I got pulling up to the house. I miss being 13. I miss the parties. I miss my brother and sister sharing friends. I miss living on Finn Street.
