Why Not

Why not Why not do what you want to do Why not make a show of you Why not tell others what you think of them Why not act like a child again Why not have fun on Saturday night Why not look straight in their eye Why not write another poem when you go home

Yes, why not stay innocent, and not turn all crabby :)

Why not.... Why let the whys of society hold you back. Why not go have fun. Why not grin like a kid. why not go down a slide again? I know I act like a child, I know I have tons of fun doing it. Never be afraid to let lose, to shake off expectation!!!
