Growing up

There was a time when I didn't ask questions and did what I was told to do.
The house and a towel
There was a time when I wanted to do nothing but play all day in the wild.
A refreshing stream under tree's shades
There was a time when I wished I have friends
The plane that flies towards the sky
There was a time when I want to be accepted
Me in my yellow pants

There was a time when I enjoyed learning about the different point of views
school bags and dorms
There was a time when I debating on major issues
desks and classrooms in the summer
There was a time when I questioned my own spirituality
staring aimlessly into the void
There was a time when I dreamt of how I want my life to be
Books and my room

There was a time when I was alone chasing my dream
Coffee, dance shoes
There was a time when I was depressed
Dark room with a blue computer screen
There was a time when I all was acceptable and nothing is surprising
Raised eyebrow
There was a time when I can't go on
Sleeping on the ground in a sleeping bag. Shivering

There was a time when I said good bye to loved ones
The kiss that felt blank
There was a time when I created something wonderful
A decapped ASIC chip costing $1000
There was a time when I wanted material things
PDA
There was a time when I asked what's next
Cubicle

A trip down the memory lane, each phrase a pure reflection of a part with its associated images.
