Backyard

Here you are standing in the midst of enchantment this is my backyard these are the loving grounds where I dreamt. This is my backyard this was my childhood this is where I dreamed of... me a few years older falling in love who would've known it would be you? Spring in the air but all you feel there is me. My innocent eyes. My curly hair sugar and spice you wish you'd been there to watch me grow up but you're here now to take it all in. Soak it all up. This is my backyard this was my childhood. This is where I dreamed of... me a few years older, falling in love. Being grown up. Never was there more innocence. This grass is the bed where I slept, this is my Dreaming Tree I climbed as high as I could reach, this is where I'd swing while I planned all my dreams where the tree house lived and the poison ivy itched, I owned all the soil I could touch and loved everything I could love. This is where I laughed, this is where I cried, this is where I napped, this is where I lied, this is where I bled, this is where I won and where I lost, this is where I said exactly what I thought. This is where I became me, this is where I dreamed... The Big Tree where Jacob, Adam and I played, the Sidewalk Josh and I raced, this is where Corey walked me Home, Rhiannon and Brittany told me secrets no one knows, Jason told me to grab my bike when we were going for a ride. This is my backyard this was my childhood this is where I dreamed of... me a few years older falling in love...
