When the only thing you want is just to be still for awhile..

Lollipops turn into cigarettes. The innocent ones turn into sluts. Homework goes in the trash. Mobile phones are being used in class. Detention becomes suspension. Soda becomes vodka. Bikes become cars. Kisses turn into sex.

Remember when..

Getting high meant swinging on the playground? When protection meant wearing a helmet? The worst thing you could get from boys was cooties? Dad's shoulders were the highest place on Earth and mom was still your hero? When your worst emenies were your siblings. Race issues were about who could run the fastest. War was only a card game and the only drug you knew about was cough medicine. When wearing a skirt didn't make you a slut. The worst pain you felt was when you skinned your knees, and goodbye only meant until tomorrow..

The only thing you couldn't wait to do was grow up..

I wish I could turn back time.. End of story.
