I miss the memories that are no longer
I miss the smiles that I cannot recall
I miss that something that was
The innocence
The curiosity
The excitement for another day
But now I have seen things
And I wish I could return
To the days when it didn’t matter
What I said or did
Because I was not responsible
The passion for life
The amazing subconscious energy
That leaked into every word I said
I wish I had appreciated
For no longer do things have the magic
Reality is too harsh
It hurts to see tears
When before obliviously I would have laughed
I feel the pain
To each day I felt bad
The insignificance it now is
For others care is now so much greater
And the guilt is strong for any wrong I may create
I wish again
Every day I live
Just to be a child.

i really like these lines-
"Reality is too harsh
It hurts to see tears
When before obliviously I would have laughed
I feel the pain
To each day I felt bad"
Great write....good very good

That's beautiful darling - I'm glad you pointed it out to me, actually that's probably the poem I've liked the most so far of yours

This is a well written piece.
I could feel the longing all the way through...
the longing for the return of innocence.
Very nicely done.

Wonderful way to express childhood. Just might be my favorite out of yours, though it's extremely hard to pick.
Laugh often, love much, live well.
