I miss
when our family
was a family
I miss
when being yourself
was good enough
I miss
when my dog
wasnt old
and mostly deaf
I miss
the times
when I didn't
feel the need
to look in the mirror
every five minutes
I miss
when you were my best friend
before your were too cool for me
and started smoking
I miss when boys were my friends
and didnt judge me
because they think im a prude
but they have no clue
who I am
I miss
when I didn't have to worry
about my mom, losing her job
I miss
who we all used to be
before everyone
was molded into groups
because of societies idea of perfect
I miss
alot
I miss
before
