To Be Young...

When we were kids,
We never knew shame,
All of these moments are truly heaven sent,
Remember the toys,
Our pretend flying cars,
And every smile we effortlessly gave to the world,
But now I'm something really lame,
Guess that's most adults all day,
Worrying about how much gas can get me to work and back,
Or If I gotta skip the tab running up,
If I got enough for the bills I ignore,
If I'll have a warm shower all winter,
But it's not always so bad,
Sometimes you can meet a nice smile,
Or even share a meal with a stranger like yourself,
It wont always be hearts and kisses,
But if you work hard enough someone will eventually bless you,
But don't be lame like me,
I'm not going anywhere,
I just want you to feel,
To see if you can feel,
To know if you pay attention,
Or just skip over,
What might be useful,
Even someone small as me,
Has a choice in this right?
If we were kids,
Then we could sing,
Hold on to our passion wings one more flight,
Remember those days,
When everyone played,
When we all had that spark of wonder in our eyes...
