Child Eyes by Shannon Tehya

My child eyes
Endlessly inspired,
innocent and kind
Haven’t yet grown tired

My child heart
Hasn’t yet been broken,
Unbridled and unburdened
And dreams don’t go unspoken

My child mind
Still yearns to play around
Never to grow up
Instead to grow back down

And my mind, and my mind
Yearns to grow back down

My grown up eyes
Are hard to inspire
I try to stay kind
But god, I’ve grown so tired

My grown up heart
Has indeed been broken
I’m picking up the pieces
Of dreams that died unspoken

My grown up mind
Still yearns to play around
To stop growing up
Instead to grow back down

And my mind, and my mind
Yearns to grow back down
Yearns to grow back down
Yearns to grow back down
