Innocence!

 

Going back on time, ⁣

To be the kid once we were, ⁣

To revisit those days,⁣

To cherish those moments, all again.. ⁣

Is that so? ⁣

Asked heart :⁣

Honestly do We? (murmured brain) ⁣

We never wanna be kids again, ⁣

We never wanna go back to school,⁣

We never wanna hide those snacks under the desk again, ⁣

We never wanna skip those class for not finishing our homeworks, ⁣

We never want our favourite shows to retelecast to watch it on a rainy day,⁣

We never want to rush back home to eat our favourite food, ⁣

We never actually wanted to go back, ⁣

All along we always wanted them to be ever when we cant be, ⁣

Searching for the good old days, ⁣

Efforts to recreate those exact same moments,⁣

To feel those exact excitements back once again, on the shows we used to enjoy, ⁣

Doing the exact things that we used to, ⁣

To feel the same how it used to be a kid again, ⁣

Still, the haunting emptiness engulfing us slowly,⁣

Only to know we never ever miss being little,⁣

We miss the days where hearts were filled with love not thoughts, ⁣

We miss being not knowing anything, ⁣

We miss being blank,⁣

We miss being vulnerable, ⁣

We miss being kind, ⁣

We miss being happy,⁣

We miss being us once we used to be! ⁣

To the days where the word vengeance never exists, ⁣

Where Hatred never been seen, ⁣

Never been regretted, ⁣

Never been judged, ⁣

Never been pushed, ⁣

Never been feared to love, ⁣

To remind once again, ⁣

We never missed being little, ⁣

Its the fear of losing,⁣

losing us, ⁣

losing the smile, ⁣

losing being kind,⁣

Its the fear of fruitful Memories that fades away, ⁣

Its the fear of losing the innocence, ⁣

Where pure love once existed, still exists somewhere, ⁣

being vanished slowly! ⁣

Its all we afraid of! ⁣

Its all we miss! ⁣

⁣

Lets not forget that 1% of child is still somewhere in us waiting to be found and seen again! ⁣
