Her First Bicycle

She was so happy, so eager to learn her first bicycle

She remembers the little girl going through so much pain

Falling on her face, picked up by her brother

as she cried and he kissed her feet saying

'there, it's all good now'

But then the bicycle ended up being her life

for a few short years

But then it is too small, and she was too big

She has grown, and it hadn't

So she said goodbye and put it on the corner of the garage

Bought a brand new one

She realizes now, it's kind of like her and you

You have grown, back then, and she hadn't

You've made other friends, and she hadn't

That's why when she isn't what you wanted,

not what you needed anymore, you left,

little by little

You replaced her, just like the yellow bicycle

that leans onto the wall, unused and forgotten
