*The dress up box*

I sit and stare at the dress up box LIke i did when i was five The innocence and magic created When putting on those sparkly wings Grabbing the wand too I run round transformed into a flower fairy Protecter of the flowers and gardens I braid my hair with poseys of lavander blue But i'm not five anymore I attend high school I am not the little innocent girl I am scarred by the reality of this world I hide behind a wall to stay safe I have to act my age What was that again? I may be fifteen nearly sixteen But i have an inner child Trying to break out Why can't no-one see? That all i want to do is be Anything from the dress up box To hide the real me And become the carefree little girl I will never be again in body But in mind, i want to be her everyday To not care about anything To not worry about the future Its scary how fast we all grow Yesterday i was in yr 7 Today i'm in yr 11 How time flys by, without us knowing I could have done so much than i did So this is my pledge To live each day like a fifteen yr old but in mind to live like The carefree five year old I always want to be Time goes fast Time doesnt stop You live everyday You lose everyday Live your life as if its your last Live your life the way you cherish to Don't let people stop you from being you Don't lose sight of the child in you Go on just for a day or two Visit that little child you once were And become her or him again Then your'll see how life flys by!
