Come Find Me

If I leave you a trail for you
Would you come find me like you used to?
Autumn leaves, burnt to a crisp
"Just like my shrivelled up soul", you would say
Old, almost torn flash cards
Do you remember how I used to force you to my "lessons"?
Pebbles, the ones shapes like dog hooves
We used to collect them by the creek
Pink rags, from the frilliest of my dresses
You'd never let me live down my "princess" phase, after all
The sound of muffled giggles
You'd even risk a tickle war to hear that
2x2 pieces of my heart
For the closet geek in you
If I leave a trail for you
Would you come back to me after all this time?
