Fading

As I observe the timeline I remember moments past.  Times in which I had time to learn and understand.  Nowadays it just seems everything's a mess.  It's all mixed messages and pain. Death and suffering. What I wouldn't give to be that kid from 10 years ago. To play and learn about the new world all over again.

As I observe the timeline I wish for a better future. A future where the old me is still new; and where mistakes meant a new lesson and were nothing to dwell on.

As I observe the timeline I wish for moments where I excelled. Times in which iI knew the answer and changed my own history.

As I observe the timeline I realise.....that time is gone. I've lost the innocence and strength I once had.

As I observe the timeline the hatred I feel from others has increased, but all I wish for is to be a kid again.

As I observe the timeline, I fade away.....

  1. the question is..... if humans remained young, will we really value each day of our life? will we have something to strive for , reason to reproduce , love or live? .... think about it ....... :{

    1. That's just it. The innocence of youth makes it so there's always a reason. Think of all the good things that you look forward to waking up to. For me personally it's games, friends, relationships. It's not responsibilities, work and the need to live life worrying about whether tomorrow i'll be evicted or not. The point to life is to enjoy it, and nobody enjoys life more than a child, seeing life purely as a time to have fun, to play to laugh. Taking into account that they truly live each day do you really think they don't value life? :)
