Literature Text

I once saw things through Innocent eyes,
Look up with my heart still so small.
The world was crazy from what I knew,
The place where no-one ever cheated or Lied.

As I child I played in the Wendyhouse,
Made a mess with my spaghetti.
Never got bored with my fancy games,
Or my old grimy teddies.

We all found joy in princesses and doll house tales,
I can never forget the way I felt,
When I received my first Baby Born,
I played with it for hours and never getting bored.

I feel so small against the others,
Who cheat and lie and fight.
Hurt and Shout and without thinking,
What I may feel like.

But the world was my own,
A happy girl, a tiny terror,
The world was just so big.

But now as I am older,
My fascination with Barbies has gone,
It's now Disco Dancing, Make-up and the latest boy bands,
And all the latest talk.

The older girls they tlak of stuff I didn't know,
When I was a little child those many years ago.
My parents say I'm now grumpy and moody,
Where did that little girl go?

I can now go out with my friends,
To clubs, house parties and bars.
All on my own
My first sips of freedom.

But inside my heart my younger self,
Is smiling with a toothless grin,
It's not what's on the outside,
But the child that lives within.
A poem I did in year eight (when I was 11).

I think it's quite cute :-)
