When we were younger,there


When we were younger,

there were no worries

about what we did, 

who we were,

what we wore.

When we were younger,

it wasnt uncomfortable

to fool around, 

       play tag,

       express ourselves.

Now we are older,

and its more than a worry.

People judge me

        by how i act,

        how i dress,

        how i express myself.

Whhy cant we just be little again?

I guess its growing up.
