Candy chains

by coverd in darkness   Jul 23, 2008


Childhood memories if only things were still like that,
everything was so innocent,
nothing was this bad,
candy chains and endless laughter,
all part of a routine,
every school holidays i would come to you,
we'd laugh and smile and share,
these candy chains once seemed so meaningless,
yet now seem to represent it all,
how things once was what now is lost,
family, friendships and more,
no longer do i see you so often,
hadn't had a candy chain in years,
yet you give mum some to give to me,
eating them i can't bare,
i sit and photograph them coz that's who i am now,
try hard not to cry as i wish i could go back,
to times so great times so carefree,
when i wasn't living a nightmare,
rather a childhood dream,
all was good then,
there was no broken relationships,
no loved ones no longer here,
still don't understand why they left,
why i never got to say goodbye,
candy chains bring me back to dreams of so long ago,
can i escape from reality,
and let those candy chains grow,
take me away to the fantasy... of my childhood dream
