If I could do it all over again
I’d make the Same Mistakes
Fall in love with the wrong guy
Wrong time
TWICE.
If it brings me YOU again
I’ll pay the price
Heartbreak aside
It all worked out
My cold bed warms
As long as I’m alive
Squished between two babies
Having the time of our lives
Beating my feet
Kicking off evil crummies
Crummies are our enemy
Interrupting soft footsies
I can’t help but join the cackling
though it’s wayyy too late
celebrating moments
while counting the minutes
Between school and chores and birthdays
and decades — in a flash
Baby skin thickens.
Our love matures
We have more in common
I feel like the student now
Though when the light hits just right
You laugh, but it’s baby you smiling
In a flood it all comes back
The times I held you tight
Innocent eyes of wonder bright
You’re a star
Converging past-present-future
when I look back
I hope it’s you four
In every lifetime.
