All I am.......

2nd September 2011

Post

Perception.

A wondrous place,

full of laughter and joy. 

Constant new beginnings

full of excitement and toys.

A giant playground,

which is theirs for the taking

Eternal optimism

in the purest form. 

Life through the eyes of a child,

it’s a beautiful place.

In life through the eyes of a child

cynicism and hate don’t exist. 

The world through the eyes of a child,

what happened to this place?

Once a wondrous playground

is now full of darkness and hate. 

For our vision has been clouded 

by the corrupt ways of the world. 

Our innocence robbed,

and our optimism continuously fading. 

We’ve allowed our rosy colored glasses

to become tainted. 

 by the deceit of our desires

and the lies we long to believe. 

But ignorance is Bliss.

For reality has become jaded 

by the knowledge of supposed perfection,

and the desperation for approval. 

A child’s perception of the world,

we all saw it this way once. 

Life through the eyes of a child,

we cant lose sight of that place.
