Sixteen

This is the moment
This part of my life is the moment
the moment
I’ll look back and remember
—I’ll never forget

This time in my life
when I was climbing uphill
Battered, bruised,
Battered again
Clothes stained—
—a strike on the chin

Is that love I hear?
In a distant corridor
You scream and I fear
I must console you—
Here

theghostsareswarming (iunderstand)

This is the moment
The first breath of man
Dusk is setting / Dreams are quitting
I can feel myself—not quite shedding
Metamorphosing within this new beginning
This part of my life is the moment
(I feel myself changing) the moment

(Will I let it?)
