camp winnamocka

so I go to a camp every summer
every summer
since age seven
I don't say bad words there
I'm happy
I'm innocent
two weeks of being a kid
two weeks of freedom
but it's only two weeks
in the summer
and I have cuts all over my right arm
what will I tell the seven year old me
what will I say when she asks me what happened
what will I say when an adult sees
I can't wear long sleeves
I can't hide it
I can't hide
I don't hide there
I hide everywhere else but there
not there
they care
people care here too
it's not that
I just don't care about people here
but there
I want to be a better person there
I want to have fun memories
be able to share
not scare
