about

Two friends play together, collecting crystals & wumpa fruits...

lyrics

We drink juice
the flavour: summer fruits.
Pink berry-tinted water that reflects my best friends’ room,
with its amethyst walls and shelves of crystals that we collect.

Complimenting the juice –
the sweet taste of wumpa fruits;
that we also collect.

Then we leave
To run the streets again.
Days of climbing trees,
the big stone
logs
hide and seek
curby.
We smell of the outdoors
and as the sun makes its leave,
so do we.

We return to the room with more summer fruits,
the strength of the taste
matching the strength of our friendship.

We are ridiculous;
but ourselves.
We play the bedside table game,
Using shoe boxes
to design the most chaotic bedside table set-up
for absolutely no fucking reason.
We make radio on the old karaoke machine
topic of the evening: Starfish;
strong opinions about starfish.

It’s the laughter I miss,
and the Haribo.
That interlude between childhood and adolescence;
it’s a laugh.

Every day I visit those memories
and every day the taste of that juice gets weaker.
The friendship drifts
and those happy memories
become happy sad.

I’ll keep hold of them though.
