Childhood Memories

My childhood days are hard to forget, of some I have glimpses, but some are carved in my head

I remember my mothers sweet smell, I remember my fathers support when I fell

Life was simple in those days and people had innocence in their gaze

I remember the whispers of the cool summer breeze,  in the fields where we played beyond the trees

I remember my childhood mates, friends at school and all their debates

I remember the girl next door, on whom I had a crush long before

That was my first lesson on emotion, which sometimes can be deceiving like the ocean

I did learn things in life first hand and somethings I still don't understand

Those days are now long gone, I sit alone with nothing but my memories
