i.
wrap up my childhood in christmas packaging
even though it's july.
i want to see the candy-coated gloss of the wrapping paper
and remember how much i used to hate the month of december.
i'll see the red and green stripes on the ribbon
and won't open it, because i hated getting anything from you.
ii.
watch me through the windows as i pack middle-school memories
in the attic.
spiders are packed up here and
there is one i particularly like;
the brown recluse that resides in an old book box.
it is the most poisonous of all the spiders.
(i hope it bites me.)
iii.
as i look through a dusty old book,
(the brown recluses' favorite,)
i see a picture of me when i was six.
i had freckles specked on my nose and cheeks, the pale white
skin consuming them.
strawberry blonde wrapped around my tender frame,
a color that i miss.
(if i could go from seventeen to six, i would.)
iv.
memories are nothing to be proud of.
not to me.

 reports, 1d 19h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article.
