Metropolis

Apr 18, 2004 03:56

I've returned to Metropolis, after nine years of absence.

It amazes me how the city can change, but still remain the same.

I went to the botanical garden, the same one Alexander, Lillian, and I walked through when he was small. I could almost hear his voice, feel his tiny hand in mine.

Tonight, as I lay waiting to fall asleep, I wondered how much he had changed. Will he accept me back into his life? Does he still love purple? Has his father made him hard, or does he still wear his heart on his sleeve? Does he still clench his jaw when he's upset but trying to hide it?

Damn Lionel for making me leave.
