SWEET CHILDHOOD MEMORIES

(this one is about remembering a childhood)

In my dark woods I am so happy.
I own the sun, the trees,
the cold wet grass beneath my feet.
I am so free
with my thoughts alone, I am complete.

My friends are the deep purple
and the forest green of violets,
the grey squirrels who bark their greetings to me
from the safety of high branches ,
And all the creatures I meet along the way
whom I would never harm,
and who would not harm me.
In my dark woods
I am so happy.

But, I'd better run home now,
someone will know that I am gone.
They will be so angry.
Momma, why are you so sad?
Momma I tried to clean my room
the best I can.
I even made your bed for you
to make you happy.
I cleaned the toilet, shiny white
just the way you said.

I'm sorry it wasn't good enough.
I'm sorry, I'll try harder.
Please don't, Momma!
Momma, please stop!
Momma, Momma, Ple-e-e-ease!!
I'm afraid!
I'M AFRAID YOU'RE NEVER GOING TO STOP!!

I'm sorry, Momma,
I'm so sorry
that I made you so angry
that you broke my arm.
I'm sorry you are so sad Momma,
I wish that I could die.

aphrodisiaciix: The pain of the past can be substituted (or subsided) with the peace (or pain) of the present... but can never be completely disappeared... But the heart and the soul are resilient organ and spirit...

jelapi23: yes, it always affects who we end up being though, and how we react to others, but it can also make us empathetic, which I think to an extend it did for me.
