I wrote this poem about my childhood and the friends that resided there. I hope that anyone who reads this remembers and cherishes their childhood as much as I.

This poem really touched me because it reminded me of a friend that I had or still have. She comitted suicide 3 weeks ago, but I never made that effort to pick up the phone and just say hi.

wow your poem is so beautiful, it's like you were describing my frienship with my friends. It shows that you take the little things for granted such as living close to your friends and riding bikes. I never realised how much it meant to me until it was gone.

I'm a 19-year old male college student, and this poem just reduced me to tears. It reminded me of the innocence of a childhood friendship that I shared with my best pal. Remembering all the good times, it was an era in my life for which I have the greatest nostalgia. Sadly, after 9 years of friendship, he moved far away in 1997 and I haven't heard from him since.

It's a great poem, it outlines how much we want to grow up and then regret wanting it to happen so fast. Well done, it's a great piece

I loved the poem, it touched me, it reminded me of what happened between me and my best friend, i moved away a year ago, and i miss her so much, we have changed alot, and i cried so hard when i read this. I had to call her and we cried together. Your poem has just touched me, thank you for writing such a beautiful poem.
