I Miss Me

by Caneel
(Maine)

This is not an I-Miss-You-So poem
Sadly, it is an I-Miss-Me poem

I miss me
My carefree nature
My willingness to play with my little sister

I miss my eagerness for more of everything
I miss my enormous appetite
I miss my love of my father

I miss pure and naive
I miss hungry
And most of all, I miss
Me

Who I was

And who I will never be again
