I want to go back to when I could curl up in bed and Disney movies would make everything feel better.
I could watch Peter Pan and feel as though Neverland was around the corner waiting for me.
As though all the princesses really got to live happily ever after and I didn't know that their lives were probably ****
Take me back to when I didn't have bills.
Or rent.
Or work.
Take me back to when happiness was a simple crayon drawing of the sky and some grass. When stick figures were considered great art!
I want to go back to before I knew what heartbreak was. Or how hard it was falling in and out of love. Before I knew that boys meant something more than just playing dodgeball with and girls were more than just a pretty face they actually had your back.
I don't know how I ever thought being a kid was so hard when being an adult is so much harder and much more sad than being a kid ever was....

I have never felt this lonely before
