I wish
I didn't loose my innocence
The one in my head
And in my heart.
I hate this maturity that has come
It makes me feel old and odd.
I feel like I know things
When everything is strange and new.
Happiness seems like a distant star
While emotions break my tar.
My smooth soft skin
Is now full of mysteries.
I know myself
And hide it well.
Others do too,
In fear of the ones
that tear us apart.
I wish I was still a child
Lost in a dream
Wimpering slowly
In my mother's arms.
No fear of the world
And of the future
That comes along.
To grab my innocence
And make me bold and strong
