Can I Go Back, Dear Uncle? Poem by Melanie Weeks

Can I go back
To when life was simple?
Can I go back
To when we were happy?
Can I go back
To when we were friends?
Can I go back
Before all lies revealed?
Can I go back
Before you lost your heart?
Can I go back
To happy Christmasses?
Can I go back
To when we were close?
Can I go back
Before our family lost all hope for you?
Can I go back
When you truely cared?
Can I go back
To dancing in the living room?
Can I go back
To when I didnt have to worry?
Can I go back
To helping you make wine?
Can I go back
To not being afriad of your mood swings?
Can I go back
To before the people who left?
Can I go back
To telling you I love you?
Can I go back
Into sweet inocence?
Can I go back
To when you helped me?
Can I go back
To when you were my hero?
Can I go back,
Dear Uncle?
