Don't Grow Up [its a trap]
like peter pan
i flew away
so i would never
have to age a day
the moon and stars
come and go
like all the people
i used to know
second star on the right
and straight on till morning
despite all they told me
i didnt heed a single warning
recklessly i went
i rode the skies
and to my solemn suprise
i knew what they had meant
theres not enough
fairy dust or silent wishes
to bring me home now
so my world is uncaught kisses
and being young forever
b.m.
