You peeled me an elephant out of your orange.
It makes sense knowing me knowing you
we were children together
we grew up together.
I kind of forgot about how you squeaked
when you laughed.
I kind of forgot that it’s impossible
for you to sit still.
You told me the mountains were calling you
I am not surprised
you have always like to climb
and balance
fall and trust.
My home has never quite felt like
home to you.
I told you that you reminded me of a kite,
not only because you were high as one,
but because on your tail you have tied
so many dreams.
That part of you has never changed.
I hope wind and rain never change that.
