do over

Give me a picture and I'll give you a story
A memory
A heartache

Those were the days when you could break a window and get out of it with a smile
Sit on the beach until the sun didn’t show any longer
Or do Homework that consisted of multiple different colored crayons

When we cried ourselves to sleep over the boogie monster
Had mommy kiss our boo boo’s better
And went to look for blues clues because he had some big secret

Back when it was okay to snuggle up in bed with mommy and daddy
Ask for a glass of water at 2 A.M.
Or spend a say at the park playing tag with the butterflies

Yeah, those were the days that I will never let slip away
The memories that will last a lifetime

i love this one so much, when i read this poem, i get teary eyed, i have this "peter-pan effect" and i always wish i didnt have to grow up. life was so much easier for me when i was younger, i didnt have room to screw up, everything was okay and beautiful. now we are all just treading in deep, dark waters, and we have no idea if we are going to stay afloat, or drown under the pressure.
