Youth

Unfiltered Challenge

By T. LichtPublished 2 years ago • Updated 2 years ago • 1 min read

just a little sprinkle of stardust in your blond hair...

... a vibrant flower between your little fingers

feet springing in merry above the grass

rosebud cheeks...

I would do anything to see that smile last forever

...freeze youth in a jar beside my bed

and inspect it for hours...

taking it apart in my brain...

like a curious boy to a watch

wondering what makes it tick...

what makes youth with it's magic wands

and unicorn dreams... and endless rainbows

oh tell me... my glass jar of sawdust and tears....
