one summer

It was 2005.
I remember it was a hot day,
but not as hot as it gets in Texas.

Back then, hair was a lot shorter,
and a much lighter color. 

I was in front of the skate park.
I've never been able to balance on a skateboard,
so no, I didn't go inside.

You can just pretend that my eyes were open.

 The skate park was a fenced inside of a larger park.

 We walked further down through the park,
to the water.  

My guy let me take his photo.

Where there was more nature.

There were cobwebs on the trees.

This seems like another world.
This seems like another girl.
It was.
I was.
And yet there's parts of me,
 that are very much still the same.
