Old Friend

For my cousin Jeremy

A hooded figure catches my eye

I watched as it crossed my path

Millions of memories I began to tie

Once I saw his face in its wrath

Curiosity and temptation

Made me wonder and twitch

Clouded with frustration

I then decided to ditch

I walked fast paced

I simply had to know

After him I chased

But space began to grow

I couldn't say his name

I wasn't sure it was him

But curiosity isn't tame

Neither was the ambition coming from him

Quickly down the hallway

Past the swinging doors

He acted like it was Doomsday

But my legs began to get sore

He whipped around the corner

disappearing from sight
