Childhood Memories
Remember when you were young
how you drew the sun,
in the corner of your page
Remember back in the day
sitting on the porch swing
on a hot summers day
Remember the lullabies,
that were sung each night
by your bed side
Teddy bares were your friends
sitting round a large table
drinking pretend tea
The monsters in your wardrobe
and under your bed
they seem like memories you wish you hadn't had
Dreams of running round the beach
in your new bathing suit
or sitting with your mum and dad.
The fairy princess I was once
The queen's crown and the angel wings
The sparkly wand that I made
The high heels that made me taller
The bigger shoes that it once wore
The smaller I got
As I changed
the world changed
Right beneath me
beneath me
Constantly evolving
Into something new
I can't control it
The future is yours
Grab it
Hold it
Take it with you
In your dreams in your reality
Remember the days that you lost
In effort to keep going
Is what I goal for
Its what I strive for
It's the only thing that keeps me wondering why
Why
I
Need
To
Try
Try
And try again
To be the child I once was
To take back a world that's gone wrong
To make the future bright and clean
For everyone and me
Its what I goal for
Its what I strive for
The only thing that would make me proud
Proud of the future me
Me
Me
