not finished

I once knew serenity

where I lived for infinity

a place of my youth

where there was nothing but truth

no lies or deceit

where there was nothing I wouldn't try and defeat

an unbreakable young mind

who saw happiness in everything he could find

but innocence started to fade

things weren't just lime and lemonade

chemical changes taken place underneath

ulterior motives hidden behind a metal sheath

whilst lost the baby teeth

took pleasure in power

and not just the pretty flower

unable to grasp that time began to move too fast

yearn for the past

emotions appeared that no one wants to last

anger jealousy hurt and depression

all which taught a life long lesson

that nothing remains the same

and for that there's no one to blame

cause the world doesn't give a ****

I know that's pessimism but expect for the worst

as then at least your bubble of life wont burst.
