Lost

The towering shelves swallow me whole. The all-so-familiar array of toys call to me with colorful intrigue. Then…panic. Where was my mom? Longing for the security of her arms, I lose hope and curl into a ball. Then, I gather my remaining courage and step into the world of speeding carts and imposing figures. Unable to find a path… then finally, her smiling face appearing as she picked me up. Realizing that she had been behind me the whole time. My perspective was just too small to see my safety.
