Potential by Allison Shin

To be a kid again,

Where crayons create life through strokes,

And your future is moldable Play-Doh,

Writing a fairytale with you as the main lead!


Where Toys become imaginary friends,

Following you on your journey towards adulthood

Numbers are birthdays,

Before they are mathematical equations


Where dreams are sprinkled into the night sky,

Disguised as stars

Whimsical, beautiful, hopefully stupid.

Where you could be anything.


You are still

Potential.

You are

You!
