Take Me Back

Just a piece about this broken soul wishing she could have her childhood back.

Take me back to when nightmares only occurred when I was asleep

To when I wasn’t scared of being awake

Take me back

 

Take me back to when I closed my eyes I only saw nothing

To when I didn’t have to relive unspeakable horrors every night

Take me back

 

Take me back to when I was comfortable in my own skin

To when I only saw perfection instead of flaws

Take me back

 

Take me back to the when the biggest problem of the day was brushing my hair

To when all my troubles were only in the moment

Take me back

 

Take me back to when my face was full of life

To when my eyes were bright and a smile was there everyday

Take me back

 

Take me back to when I only saw the positives in people

To when people were good instead of evil

Take me back

 

Take me back to my childhood

To when I didn’t appreciate everything that I had

Take me back please

 

I’ll appreciate it now
