place: is it still there?
If you went there, would it still be there, untarnished or aged?
Would that park still be there, that lot?
Would the trees still look the same, towering over you but still thin
and small, like how you were?
Would your old friends meet you there, to play simple childish games
and have no worries of the greater world?
Would you tell each other secrets of immature crushes and make believe gossip?
Would things like war and death, heartbreak and loss, politics and
religion, all cease to exist?
Is there any way back to that place?
