600 Miles

Polaroid photos,

Angry teachers,

Hallway madness,

Football-worthy tackles,

Countless detentions,

Sharpie markers,

Yellow paper pads,

Unhooked bras,

First kisses,

Truth or Dare,

Slight affair,

I'm 600 miles away from myself,

I'm 600 miles away from my love,

I'm 600 mies away from my best friend,

And somethings gotta give.

I miss ourselves.

The way we were.

I came in alone.

Emerged well known.

Small town drama.

Loud, bitchy mamas.

And I'm 600 miles away from my home.

Hard life for a Soldiers daughter. I was in the Army for 15 years. I got out so I could see my children grow. Hard to lose good friends. At least we have the internet and cell phones. 600 miles won't be much when you are older and have time to travel. I like the poem. I understand the hardship on a family by being a Soldiers. A excellent poem.

i move a lot to because my dad's in the Army :/
I hate uprooting and I just happen to be 600 miles away from my best friend and hitman. But ya know...whatever...At least my dad's retiring where we are now.

Awesome! Sounds a lot like me sometimes, I move almost every two years, and it feels like I'm 600 miles away from home, in my own house... Love it!
