Wish I Could Be A Child Again

Wish i could be a child again...
When sitting on my father's lap i could chat away all my childish worries....When every question had a definite answer - some that were amusing and some for which i was too small to understand...A world where fairies did come at night to hear your secret prayers and Santa clause could still get you your most desired gift....A time when you knew for sure what is it that you wanted...whatever it is that you wanted..

Wish I could live those moments again..Have a few laughs at my follies..Dance around at whatever small achievements i managed to gather...When my best friend would just be a few blocks away...When I could always be sure of having my mom beside me at bed time checking if am getting my sleep alright...When happiness,sadness and anger were the only feelings to be concerned about and a bar of chocolate or a warm hug was all that was needed to erase out the later two..When its fireflies that keep you up from your sleep ..When RESPONSIBILITY was just another word for your spelling test...When the highest EXPECTATION from you was just to save yourself from tripping down...When it was OK to be ignorant and CUTE to be outspoken..

Wish I  could be a child again,,,When there weren't these many RIGHTS and even more WRONGS....When there wasn't much difference between what it is that you want and what it is that you were supposed to want..When the fights with your best pal wouldn't last beyond a day..When a sorry was all that was required to solve every single thing..When there weren't any masks, suppressed dreams or broken promises... And when you wouldn't have to keep aside or silence your heart's one wish thinking about a trillion consequences...Wish I could be a child again...
