Long Gone.

In times long gone
I'm the child
Who ran innocently and free
With childhood ecstasy
That seemed like it would last forever

In a time long gone
I'm the owner of happy memories and moments
One step at a time
I walked the cave of memories back to the beginning
To see what it was like and how it used to be
Feeling the chill from within
As I come by familiar feelings
And moments that broke and moulded me
I hear sweet and haunting melodies
Harmoniously forming an eerie and beautiful sound
That brought tears; sad and happy tears

As I continue my journey back
The beginning got farther away
I kept walking, but it still seems far
But maybe what I needed was not the past
Maybe what I needed was growing out of the child in me
And growing out of the cave I made myself
To house my hurt and pains, my sadness and joy

But I never thought of that
Now I know better
Childhood for me is long gone
I have to work and walk towards the future
Because it took me so long to get here
And the journey back might deprive me of the growth


Thank you for your time.
