From around age ten
we begin taking out contracts
Invisible signatures
In indeliblee ink
That say
I know you
And you know me
But
I don’t remember signing
Away the right to forget
Everything,
and begin again

I agree, this sudden boost into the adult world is very confusing as a teen.. I too do not remember the signing of the contract which made me forget my preteens and childhood…. Very relatable
Tear up the contracts Chris. Only take them out with yourself 😊 and feel free to erase and create new ones anytime.
