Poem — Challenge Entry: This Is How I Remember It

By K.A. SmithPublished 7 months ago Updated 7 months ago 1 min read

Remembers...
Wishes...
Dark — very deep,
and preyful, too.

Like filters, we strained well
to see a special somebody,
something special, too.

Close!
Closes view,
there's disappointment,
Ask again...
fat or skinny,
too.

Didn’t eat,
it remembers wishes,
That’s it!
For the toy...

Shouldn’t have
shakin' the ball,
black and blue.

Thank you for reading!
