Giggling, smiling, watching, sleeping!
The first journey of a new, untouched life.
No hurt, no pain. Just being!
Those days I long for before this strife
Freedom, freedom, freedom…
Running, leaping, playing, discovering!
That blissful ignorance stays so sweet-
No worries, no cares. Just living!
My childhood self, I’d love to meet
Freedom, freedom…
Working, thinking, paying, stressing!
No longer new. But older and wiser.
The pain. The heartbreak. So overwhelming
Longing to reverse the time. Forever.
Freedom…
Aching, ageing, hurting, dying!
Slumped in a chair for days on end.
The worries. The captivity.
Wondering. When will this end?
