A Kid Again

Kenneth Unknown 2004 (Jacksonville)



Oh, how I wish to be a kid again,
Don't you remember playing on the slides back then.
It was so easy to make friends,
Nowadays we just pretend.
Oh to be a kid again, having no worries
Just a minute ago, I was a kid, and now my life feels in a hurry.
No bad thoughts, no depression, no sadness, you could just be you,
Oh how I wish to be a kid again, but my time is now due.
