I look into your eyes,
And I can see,
The inner-child that used to be,

Once upon a time,
It seems to me,
You had so much fun,
And so little from which to hide,

In the time, when fun was number one,
There was always a part of you,
That wished you’d always stay young

We grow up to fast,
And how the days fly past,
And of it all, I’d get rid
For just one more day as a kid

Oh how I wish I could be a kid again. It was so simple then. Its funny, someone whose 19 said he still feels like a kid, and I'm 15 and I don't feel like I've been "a kid" since I was about 10. Cuz after that life got really complicated. sigh. Good write, it has my vote.

(big hugggsssssss) This is very heartfelt, dearest friend, I too wish I could live another boyhood because I suffered from abuse growing up and now I am 19 and hold the spirit of the boy in my heart but still feel sad sometimes regretting all that is done! (sigh) God Bless You, sweet friend, know the spirit of the child will always be in your heart, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet friend, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

I am 15 and also feel like I've already lost my childhood, I think it happened when I went to high school because of all the pressure, very nice poem, I really enjoyed it
