I wish I was a child again

Twirling spinning around

So dizzy I was like a drunk
and fell down.

I wish I was a child again

My only key opening
the front door.

Not having bills and
payments due galore.

I wish I was a child again

So when I was sad and blue
I was guaranteed a hug.

I didn't have to worry about
boyfriends who were would be
jerks and thugs.

I wish I was a child again

When if a boy liked you
he slugged you in the arm
and ran away.

Not like grown ups
always looking for the perfect lay.

I wish I was a child again

Where everything was cured
with a Band Aid or a Popsicle

And relationships and things
didn't seem so daunting
and impossible.
