For a moment

I ache

For the days I wondered who I would become

the days I wondered what life would hold

the days I wondered where I would go

I ache

For the days filled with hope

the days filled with confidence

the days filled with awe

I ache

For the days I dreamed of the impact I’d have

the days I dreamed of being invincible

the days I dreamed too many dreams

I ache

For the days I cried and didn’t know why

the days I cried but should’ve known better

the days I cried at what felt like forever

I ache

For my old sense of wonder

When life felt filled to the brim

With dreams

With tears

I ache

In this moment

Just for a moment

I ache
