A Child

A child so free
Nothing can hold them down
They have the word at their finger tips
Dreaming of a place called neverland 
A place that will soon be forgotten 
As they get older they loose the freeness 
Saying things like “I can’t do it”
But I say YOU can do it
But they don’t listen 
They stop dreaming 
Now as a 15 year old 
They no longer play in the snow 
The snow they never stopped playing in
The neverland that doesn’t exist 
But now they dream of a maze
A maze that they shape 
They think and do a way to fit the maze
They only think about what others want 
At the age of 20 they find love
The neverland is lost
The carefreeness is lost
It won’t ever come back 
The things have become reality 
But my mind is no longer a maze 
It’s a road that is shaped so perfectly 
That nothing can change the road
A neverland is gone 
And now a maze
And a road is what exists
