Ode to my Past

I remember years ago

All of my mediocre dreams

A time when my imagination

Was bursting at the seams

 

Thinking that these dreams

Would actually come true

How silly I was

How all my thoughts were skewed

 

Every once in a while

I missed those times

When I was young

And so naïve

 

Because one thing I hated about growing up

Was the sour taste of reality

That took over my taste buds

And caused my sweet dreams to perish

 

Oh how I look back on the past

Those times I will cherish

Forever.
