Those days.

eh i was really bored last night.

I love falling asleep to the pitter-patter
of raindrops on my windowsill.

It reminds me of a simpler time
when the only thing you worried about was
being able to play in the fields when the sun rose.

I miss the days when 10 minutes felt like hours
when being punished.

I miss the days when I couldn't wait
to fall madly in love.

I miss the days where riding my bike two feet further
was the biggest accomplishment.

I miss the days if you could manage to
choke down your veggies, you got ice cream

I miss the days when tomorrow seemed far away and
yesterday never mattered.

I miss the days when seasons
passed in a blink of an eye.

I miss the days when there wasn't
a care in the world.

I miss the days when it didn't matter
what color your skin is.

I miss the days when you weren't judged
because of who you are or who you know.

I miss the days when you
didn't need to impress someone.

and to think;
I couldn't wait
to "grow up".

I like it. It's true. Kids are so happy. Adults are so depressed. It's just a downward spiral unless you find out how to control it. Beautifully written. :).

Very wise, you have achieved knowledge that some never learn.
