Bittersweet is
when you are playing in the snow
with your best friend
for hours on a snow day,
coming inside for a cup of hot chocolate
giggling about everything and anything.
Then realize it was all just a memory
and now on snow days you are studying
or staring at your phone,
and you are no longer friends with that best friend
who once sat in the snow to create a happy snowman.
Bittersweet is
going to the pool with your friends,
all day you are in bright summer sun
laughing and splashing.
Then later in the day, going inside
and you are all bright red.
But now it's winter
and everyone is sad and cold
trying to get back to the days
when you could sit outside all day.
Bittersweet is
growing up
and everything that once happened
becomes a core memory.
