The revisitation of my hometown has brought everything and nothing.
The playground were I got my first kiss is still there. My childhood house, still the same. The silence - still perpetually omnipresent.
The familiarities are so dramatically present that they blend into oblivion. Time is still, yet moving in light speed.
The changes are all mine. The gym hall of my old school isn't a taunting ground. The houses of my old friends - just houses. The creek beside the freeway - just a creek.
The soundtrack of this place - still faint and bitter sweet.
