I miss the smell bubbles and chalk

I miss the thought of staying up late as 9 o'clock

The only way to feel better was a hug

As you get older you are climbing up a ladder into outer space.

Each step is a new year

Each step is farther from “home”

As a kid you want to be at the top of the ladder

As a teen you think once you reach the top it can only get better

As an adult you realize you are at the top and there is no way down

Home is out of sight

But once you realize it's over

Your hoping for some closure

The top of the ladder is outer space

Outer Space is the finish line you think

Once your there its a race

You have to embrace all the asteroids you have to dodge

The passing asteroids retrace all the things in your life

You wish you were there 

You miss home

There's no way back because everyone's gone

Now your lost

Forever
