Fight fight fight
the sleep
the
fat
ig
ueNO
must stay awake.
For Kahlua coffee and 3 AM conversations.
Must must must.

Maybe it's ap
NEA I'm awake I promise Mama
you don't have to wake me up
from my midnight nap just
please please please
let me sleep
sleep sleep sleep.

I miss bedtime stories and
laughing laughing laughing,
even the word looks like
it's happy.
I miss not having to stress over
tests tests tests
for chemistry and pregnancy and honesty.
But I miss
you you you
and our songs
I miss you and our grass and our songs
the most
most most most.

That smell wafting through the air
Brings a bout of nostalgia

Lightly fried fish
Under that tunnel in Ueno
Near that subway entrance

That path we've trod on
So many times

Past.

There's this smell that always reminds me of this back from Japan. Smells I'd been accustomed to through the whole my childhood.
