My girlhood is but myths of empty memories of a lost imp that Learned hiding is better than to be seen. She was a sun, a ray of joy; but cruel words had her run away and I lost her, only to be met in the flashes of life’s tapestry of my youth. And while I carry unsurmountable grief of not knowing, and all the loss; I can but only imagine her as part of me. (Maybe we’ll find each other in a magical dream one day.)
