This morning, I thought of the me of the past, who disliked talking and disliked smiling
We were once children, Young and innocent. We saw the world with open minds, And an untainted imagination. We sought out the simple things, Not realizing that the world Contained such things as Petrifying as hate. We were once wild and free, Unchained by the worries and stresses accompanying growing up. We never once thought twice about looks and bills. Instead wondering around in mismatched socks with unruly hair. We were once forgiving. Holding grudges was a foreign thing. So often we forgave and went on with the lives we cherished. We were once blind. We were blind to the corruption surrounding us. We did not see the disabled as weak, And we did not see the world as cruel. But we are no longer children. We can finally see.
