Ode to the days of yore!

Have you ever wished
To go back in time?
When you were so naive
and could count responsibilities
On the back of your sleeve.

Oh the times of careless embrace,
When living was for living
and seeing that smile
dash across your face.

But innocence is lost
Times have changed.
Before you know it
18 years have aged.

I look back at those days
with a touch of jealousy.
I know that all the mistakes
All belong to me.

But if you could live
In an eternity of childhood,
Would you trade what you know now
And stay there for good?
