The World That I Know

I look at those children

Running and playing around

Joyfully, innocently

As any kid should do

And I feel so sorry for them.

I see that smile on their little face

And their shining eyes

Reflection of their pure soul

I hear their songs and their giggles

And I feel so sorry for them.

Once they’ll grow up

They’ll have to face the reality

That won’t allow any naivety

Because adulthood has no place for innocence

And I feel so sorry for myself.
