The Word 'prodigy' Never Found Its Way Near My Name. Yet, All I Hear From Peers Who Used To Be Proud,

The word 'prodigy' never found its way near my name. Yet, all I hear from peers who used to be proud, now concerned, is ' you know too much.' And I ask, and I cry.

Did I fly too close to the sun again, Father? Am I falling?

I am tired of seeing you in my dreams. I don't want to walk through this memory with the ghost of you again. To see you smile, to see us back underneath the summer sun, is agony. To recall my name, from broken pitches of your last remembered voice, is agony. With that said, again I will wait for you in my dreams tonight.

I forget most in madness, sickness of my heart washes over these delicate memories I hold till they aren't. But something tells me, I will remember you, not as a warning, never that, more like warmth. I will know you as my gentle sun, less harsh than the real one.

I want to be like the tides, gentle and roaring. I would try to kiss the moon in one blink and come crashing down in another. But I am not that free. I am this little plant that seeps and stays. My smile depends upon the skies. Even if I hate to admit it, the winter solstice makes me long for warm lights.

One day

Someone curious enough

Will ask me about my favourite word.

And that will be my cue

To flash a truly enigmatic smile

And somehow mumble ' might.'

Oh! She is steep,

The kind that makes you yearn

And fearful to leap;

Because one second

She'll show worlds of looming glory,

And in another you're consumed and spent.
