Sunshine, Lollipops, Rainbows

Sunshine, lollipops, rainbows, are all tings I loved as a kid, I wanted to grow up; little did I know, I’d grow up so fast.

The sunshine; changed to thunderstorms.
Lollipops; turned so bittersweet 
Rainbows changed; too black, grey, dark clouds hanging over me.

Oh why when I was a kid, did I want to grow up so fast, everything is so different and not as id imagined nor pictured they would be. 

I thought life would be brighter; and I’d thought I’d be better.
But instead; life is darker. 
And now I am; oh so bitter.

Oh how I wish I was a kid again.
So I could embrace the sunshine, lollipops and rainbows all over again; and wish not to grow up like I did in the blink of an eye.

Now I deal with darkness and pain;
Thats a never ending; rainy, thunderstorm.
That only ends in bittersweet pain. 

Oh how I wish I was a kid again.

My first emotion is happy hearing your beautiful Irish accent, not easy to do in a poem,  my second is feeling this incredible change in tone we all get to feel once we have been taken from the lollipops and rainbows and into a world of grief, a shocking contrast makes one feel incredibly lost,  this is really powerful and I am sure so relatable to so many especially to me. I found my own journey has led me to write poems that have helped me heal. 🌹
