Like, Sometimes...

sometimes silence is the loudest kind of noise

like/ sometimes it was best

when girls were girls

and boys were boys

like back when freeze tag/

was a mating dance

like back when 'do over'

meant you got another chance

like back when anxiety

was worrying if

Wonder Woman

would make it out alive

like back when/ freedom

was sliding backwards

on a slide

like back when success

was/ jumping

off a swing/

and landing on your feet

then/ doing it all again
