Remember the days when a stick was a flaming sword?

Remember when a bumble bee was terrifying?

Remember when bad words were things like "barf' and 'fart'?

When sticking out your tongue out was the meanest thing you could do?

Back in the day when no one cared what you wore?
In the time when everyone was themselves?
No masks,
No hiding,
Just being yourself.

When the wind came,
We would fly along with it.

Then came the wind of change,
It blows away everything familar.

It leaves you standing alonge,
in a a world unknown.

Struggle on,
Fight the loneliness.

If you look closely,
You'll see your friends,
All standing alone,
and they'll see you,
standing like they are.

That's when you reached out to them,
and the world softened,
became less terrifying.

The world is still huge,
still scary,
still different than anything you've ever known,
But you're no longer alone.

Love it... Makes me remember my childhood... the few years of my life that I was innocent. (grew up fast)
