"The Simple Life"
What went with the simple life?
When sleep was never lost,
And worries never plagued ones mind.
When children laughed in joyous glee,
And heartbreak was never known.
Where did the simple life disappear to?
Was it just my imagination?
Or did those sunny days just pass me by?
No more can I remain carefree,
No longer can I sleep peacefully,
And no longer can my mind rest,
Free of worries.
I suppose this is what everyone refers to as "Real Life",
But there is nothing I wouldn't give,
To return to the "Simple Life".
