I WAS A CHILD

in literature •  7 years ago 

Once I was a child
Once I talked as a child
Once I thought as a child
Once I behaved as a child

The pictures in my mind were shallow
My greatest enemy was my shadow
I said mom, that person is always following me
Little did I know I was a child

The moon in the sky amazed me
It was a great puzzle for me
I asked again mom, why is the moon following us
Little did I know I was a child

We drove through the highway
And there goes another surprise
I said mom, the trees are moving backward
Little did I know I was a child

We decided to trek on a sunny day
And the mirage on the road created another seen
I said mom, why don't we ever get to the waters
Little did I know I was a child

When I was child
I thought as a child
I behaved as a child
I lived as a child
