Like a Child
It seems just yesterday
When I was but a baby
Now I am grown
"Where did time fly to", I ask myself.
A new phase of life
Is upon me
This is a new change
I will gladly accept
Times have changed
New challenges to face
New hurdles to cross
"Phew", I sigh
Wiping beads of sweat from my forehead
Childhood days were fun days
Less worries, less struggles
Those were good times
If only I could turn back the hands of time
I just want to go back
To those carefree days
when I was a child
I can still make my days ahead
Beautiful and memorable
I want to be like a child
Play and jump around
I want to be like a child
Carefree and happy
These are my inner wishes
If only it were possible
I would have loved
To be like a child
