Wishing I Could Go Back To My Innocence

After a sleepless night I got out of my bed just normal,
Had a shower,combed my hair ,applied my makeup in care.
I walked out the door with a smile on my face,
I looked around and inhaled the morning wind and stopped to appreciate life.
I drove to work with my radio on playing my favorite song "This I Promise You",
I reached to work said good morning  smiled and waved to everyone,
Unknowing to everyone I spent the night in tears,
With my head held proud I walked along the corridors,
Everyone said I looked happy every single day ,
Yet I felt different inside my heart,
Sometimes I wished that I was a child again,
When I didn't have anything to worry about,
My parents were my  shelter to protect me from the world,
But not anymore now I was alone,
To fight my battles on my own,
I wanna go back to no hurt and pain,
When everything made me happy  and free.

Yes, I also wish I never grew up. Childhood days are the best.... as we grow older we seek wisdom from the darkest of truths, known as reality. Great write!
