Start All Over Again

Let’s go to the basics again

And start all over

I could be the same girl

the one I left behind

The oblivious jittery cautious sad

And yet living agile soul

I miss all the excitement

All plays all delays

I miss how it feels to be surprised

To be really really happy at times

Cause I know its still not over

It’s a sad practical world out here

And I’m all emotionless

I know I will make the same mistakes

And I know I will get back to the same “me” later

As I can not break the promises I made

To my tiny little self

But I want to see the old me again

And I know it won’t make a difference
