abandoned buildings have feelings too

sometimes i think about the old graffiti'd building
in the bottom of the canyon behind your parent's house

i think about how so much must have happened down there
parties, laughter, self-discovery, loss of innocence
and how even before that someone worked down there

and yet still i think about the time we spent exploring that canyon
how as soon as we were down there i felt at home
i felt the need to be alone, the need to be free
i felt lonely and complete and satisfied simultaneously

sometimes i think about the old graffiti'd building
in the bottom of that canyon - and i wonder if they miss me
