stolen time

How we knew each other,
when I a mere girl and you,
just a boy; when hope was 
snuck out through windows
and nightfall's dark. Stowed
away in corners and shadows,
before you'd live in vacant lots,
on the run from warrants, and 
the children you harmed, but
not how we hurt each other
when we were young.
