life itself

Life and goals

Stars and dreams

I have all these things

That I’ve wanted 

More than anything

Yet

When did I start craving

Success and ambition

Before life itself

When I was young I knew

Knew how to love and forgive

To hug and touch and live

I knew how to live life

Without thinking so much

About what I am supposed to do

Or how I am supposed to look

And let people go that made me cry 

That girl that bullied me in school

And took away my Disney book

When my older best friend stood up for me

And told her to give it back to me

I didn’t try and be her friend, that girl

Didn’t let her hurt me over and over again

But our mind it plays tricks

As kids, there was no bullshit

We just did

We could say goodbye

Or tell someone to please

Please stay forever

And move right on through

I could be happy

Because every day was an adventure

And every day

It was enough

Saying how we felt

And meaning what we said

With no regret
