waded out too far, lost sight of the shore

i remember the time i got lost in penny lane mall, i remember how much i loved the old brick apartment buildings downtown, the beautiful library and it's flower gardens. i remember biking to school in the spring and the river and green apples and loneliness. i remember the summer i didn't eat, and i didn't sleep, because i just didn't need to. i remember running away in the middle of the night, my dad came and looked for me in a park. i'd walked down to the playground, and sat with my head in my hands and cried. it was cold out but i couldn't feel a thing. i remember meeting you, all of you, and it's good we're still together, at least in some sense.
