youngness


originally uploaded by Tim McDonald.

something about age makes us stop trusting life. 
nothing's as simple, nothing as sound
as when i was young and loved all that i saw.
its more scary to fall from more high off the ground.

i thought i'd be happy forever and ever,
but life's complicated now, messy, and sad
i fought for my innocence, fought life and lost.
i didn't keep smiling, and i wish that i had.

but some things remind me of who i once was:
cookies and flowers, sunshine and snowfall. 
i like to think back to the happy i knew
i don't wanna forget that, don't want to at all.
