Young at heart
Yet juvenile in mind
Thinks life is easy
Growing up quick
Somewhere around
While some yearn
For their youth
Raises her doubt
Being young
Dreamt of adulthood
Lack of freedom
Crave for independence
Backed her thoughts
Hanging at cafes
Accomplishing a job
Shopping on her own
Looking after family
Heightened up her feelings
Gobbled up
In her cravings
Unending eagerness
Accelerates her urgency
She is in the shoe of an adult
Swarmed with responsibilities
But,
“CHILDHOOD”
Strikes her dream of bliss
Amidst all burdens
Freedom and felicity
Seems heavenly
Weeping over losing glory
Reminisces fun and enthusiasm
Time of everlasting elation
Educated and pampered
Under parental affection
Scooped up
Childhood memories
Blossoming youth
Marks a red line
In her mind
Lost in her thoughts
She questions,
“Why are we ignorant?”
Losing childhood
Over complicated adulthood
She concludes
Though eager to grow
Youth draws me back
Time flies
Enjoy your present
Soon an adult to be
Lamenting over the past.
