I don’t remember when;
Skipping every rock on the pond;
My childhood is forever gone;
I took it all for granted;
Standing near the hearth for warm;
Never realized how cold it was for the unfortunate ones.
I wish I could walk my way back to those innocent years;
Skipping the pain and miseries;
Where I always try to hold back my tears.
The guiltless face of childhood still appeals me from within;
As all of us have changed from then;
And there is no need for me to pretend.
Lately I have been missing all those days;
And I often feel the urge to cry;
Why couldn’t everything stay forever?
Why must we all have to say goodbye.
These years have passed in the blink of an eye;
The childhood friendship still lingers in my heart;
And those friendships we had have faded quickly.
I look back on those memories often;
As every person does;
And realize how much I wish to be a child again;
How much I wish to be a child again……
