There was a time
When all we wanted was pills
Anything to line our stomach
Take a hold of our senses
And tumble down
The stairwell
We would keep then in a bowl
Like candy
Ready to chew
To dance and sing
To buzz around the apartment
Like bees
Heavy with nectar
We would fall
Upon the rug
A soft landing
Like letting the ocean
Lap against our toes
Were they good days
Or bad
We remember
And forget
Like an adventure
We couldn't control
Now we are older
And all we crave
Is rooms by the sea
Brilliant blue
And cool
Cool
Waves.
