BOX OF STOLEN CHANCES

The pictures framed on the walls of my mind
Spare memories tucked in places hard to find
Sudden kisses on cheeks,
Secret handshakes and greets,
Discarded drawings coming back outlined.
And I find myself replaying the dusty tapes Of
innocent adventures, narrow escapes
Sneaking off to corridors,
Lunch in front of the back doors,
Hearing scandalous words and staring agape.
