Description

remember when we were carefree
and nothing used to worry me
the neighbourhood was my kingdom
and the front yard was my palace
we used to play pretend
worlds of magic and fantasy
we made up spells and slayed dragons
here are no more games to play
no more running around in circles
until our heads spun
and our legs gave out
under the weight of our laughs
no more twirling under
the sun at noon
with nothing
but the sounds of the forest
to be our tune
we left it all in the dust
slowly crawling away
inside our under-lived lives
until we were so far removed
from that swirling stream
of long honeydew days
