Just a Child

You call me just a child,
And that may be true.
But if you looked inside,
You'd see just what I knew.
I am not stupid,
But I’m not saying that I’m smart.
It doesn’t take a genius,
To see how our world is falling apart.
You say I’m just a child,
But I’m mature beyond my years.
I’ve seen the pain and torment,
Which brought me to face my fears.
I could die tomorrow,
Never felling life’s peak of bliss.
So the next time you say I’m just a child,
Please remember this.
Your childhood probably lasted,
Much longer than mine;
‘Cause unlike you,
I had to grow-up way ahead of time.
Tomorrow lies before me,
While yesterday’s behind;
But today I’ll seek the good things,
Hoping I might find.
What my life’s about.
I’ll try to have some fun,
Whether good or bad,
It’s better than having none.
So if I am just a child,
Just a little kid,
All of my blessings,
Unto you I bid.
I can make a difference,
Even though I’m small.
Cause on the inside – where it counts,
I am really tall.
So do me just one favor,
It may not be easy for you,
Never call me just a child,
‘Cause I’ve seen as much as you have too.

| On the context of your poem: Life has many roads to choose. Most of us choose a mixture of good and bad. It's a learning curve. It can be beautiful at times and it can tear your heart out. Live it and be happy....I enjoyed reading your poem because I flowed along with it. I like your style since it seems to fit into my own. I look forward to reading more of your works. thanks for sharing! |
