a place i haven't been in a long time, a return to memories, glimpses of color, infatuation, crushes, things from high school, from olden days, orange shorts, blonde hair, glimpses, dreams, wishes, impossible dreams, merely dreams, nothing but dreams, just mere thoughts, things to bring smiles to faces, to occupy thought space in the head, that has otherwise lain dormant, that was not a place that has been occupied for ages, and long ago by a curly red haired girl, and the start of it all, the beginning, and a return to roots, so smart, so full of life, so young, at the start, in the gate, just raring to go, to be let loose upon the universe, to be unleashed, and watching a comet, seeing the space shuttle lift off and escape the bonds of gravity, and reach towards the heavens, and it's just seeing this, watching this, observing this, not racing, not going with, tagging along, running with the devil, stowing away, none of that, but just, well, just knowing a little, that's enough.
