I remember one night
where my childhood went
to sleep
and never woke up
it was in the summer
1994
i remember the floral print couch
between the ferns
the windows were open
breeze and sun were coming in
brighter than it ever does now
i woke up feeling
a weight on my chest
my eyelids lost their elasticity
a new sort of darkness
and my pores
were crying oil
like a switch
my adolescence
flicked
and a new part of me was turned on
