My Childhood

Take me back to the time I felt forever young,
Like I could do all that I wanted under the sun.
Jumping in the rain to the 2000s beats
Where that nostalgic feeling is never out of reach.
I miss the 2000s, but I'll be fine
I was born in 2002 but lived in 2009.
I missed having crushes and going to bed with butterflies,
I miss having first kisses and speaking with my eyes.
I miss losing myself in those headphones,
Singing like I'm on cloud 9,
The bathroom was my studio,
I hope I sounded fine.
I missed that Innocence we once possessed,
That set us apart from all the rest.
I'm in the present, but take me back to the past,
Where I can shape my own future and allow it to last.
Where Linkin Park dominated, when I felt numb,
And Some Nights was so nostalgic, sang by Fun.
But noting was more nostalgic than listening to Midnight City,
Eyes closed at 3 in the morning, clears your self pity
I remember picking leaves as money,
I was richest of the land.
If not I was cooking mud, flowers and sprinkled some sand.
Yes I stupid, dumb and free,
But at the end of the day, I was me.
Immune to what society wanted us to be.
This was my childhood, in the comments share yours please,
And let us all reminisce on moments like these.
