Wish We Were Kids Again

Just what the title says!

Remember when we were young,

And we couldn't wait to grow up?

When nothing ever went wrong,

And a candy made us glow up?

When fights meant broken toys,

And every girl was a princess?

When the wounds that hurt the most

Were scrapes from the benches?

When every wound was healed up

By a magic kiss from mother?

When a wrecked doll was the cause

Of fights with your brother?

When all it took for you to melt

Was chocolate and a 'sorry' card?

When we knew no miseries of the world

And life was not all that hard?

Well now that we are older

(Or old enough to know)

I wish I was still a little child

Playing in the winter snow.

Well now that we've all grown up,

What breaks during a fight

Are no more toys, they're promises,

We can't ever get it right.

We wish that we never grew up,

We wish we had stayed younger,

O, what I would not give to be

A little kid a little while longer!

Author's Note

It doesn't actually snow where I live in India, regrettably. :P Other than that, this is my first published work ever, so please go easy on me. :)
