It does not seem so long ago,
that simple things were part of me.
It does not seem so long ago
that love surrounded me.
For I remember the simple things
from the twinkle in my eye,
to a doll that always shared my thoughts
the hapiness of just being alive
that feeling always filled my days.
a feeling of awe and how could I forget.
The feeling of being undestructible
a feeling so strong yet so tender.
As if I could really touch the sky
as if I could really play with the stars.

Back then I trusted so much,
I lived so much for that
Reality was just that simple
it was just part who I was,
it was indeed who I really was.
Part of me truly believed
Part of me truly trusted
what I thought
it was there.
needed not to be changed or altered
but to be embraced and accepted.

Life was so trasparent back then
my world as a child was truly pure,
A world of laughter
a world that nothing could or should go wrong.
But a world where happiness
visited me
without failing and
leaving without a doubt.

Hurt as well as pain it did not last
but was everlasting was the unsong song of hope and
love that was ever present there.
So real, so close to my heart and so dear
as a good friend as a good guide should.
I often wonder who might've been
maybe God?
maybe it was his closeness that I felt?
His sweet present that I couldn't ignore.
the love that was ever present there..
Who really knows ,
but what is the truth is
I still miss miss it today,
my sweet and unforgottable childhood.

Oh sweet and unforgottable childhood,
where have you gone,
You do not know
how much I really missed you
the passing of time has truly changed me
and if you see me now
you would not recognize me
for I have changed into
what they called an adult
full trivialities and
full of self-doubts.

Where have you gone,
sweet childhood of mine
can you answer me?
where did my
dreams,
laughter,
hope,
trust,
and
love gone?
Tell them I missed them so,
Tell them that I wish they all could go come back.
sweet and unforgattable childhood.
You left me with so many questions
and no answers.
However, my main question remains
and I ask.
why did you leave,
why did you leave me
was it because I grew up?,
was it because I changed?
The sad truth is that
you left me
with this empty feeling
so deep in my soul
the feeling of loneliness
the feeling that I am
truly all alone.
