Staring at innocence lost days passing in finality Each hour carries higher cost and more responsibility Do you remember days gone by? How easy time would come and go your aspirations all a lie you find your dreams fade as you grow And still you choose to look away You hide it in the shadowed mind until you wake up on that day and see the truth your forced to find The days of youth are precious few And gone before you’ve come to see that nothing you can ever do to get back who you used to be. |

Its so true, that while we are young, we wish so badly that we can be grown up, but when we finally reach that point, where we are realizing that we are beginning to grow, then we all of a sudden wish we were young again... great job! i liked shan |

And the funny thing is, we don't ever realize it till it's a bit too late. Or maybe we do, but like you said, we look the other way. This is so so true....it's how things really are. |
