being young
I want to be young
Lie down with not a thought on my mind
dreams of color and happiness that I can't describe in words
but it doesn't matter because i don't need
to explain myself to anyone. I want to be happy and smile
until my face hurts and people wish they could be like me
Like I want to be like a child.
I want the heavy weight off
from upon my shoulders
To feel weightless and carefree
We worry about things
that soon won't matter
We ponder thoughts until our head feels like
its about to explode. Then I cry
Cry about nothing, though it seems like everything.
I want to be a child
Like the ones I see as I drive down
the road, remembering what it was like to just play
No worries.
