bittersweet

bittersweet
are the kisses
of your lost youth
the bent and torn
photos
collected in
a soft box
behind other
boxes. things
you haven't
the heart to discard,
or abandon
completely.
the valentines,
the pins,
and notes,
dried and dusty
flowers,
crushes from
children,
now long
the tunnel
of being
adult.
