Take be back to my childhood
When the idea of bills was distant
Like the moon,
Whereby we shone, through our parent’s benevolence
Take me back to my childhood
When the idea of fun
Was chasing butterflies, grasshoppers
And unwittingly suffocating them in containers
Take me back to my childhood
When we slept fitfully every single night
Unlike now where worry rules nights
Unless we’ve drowned them in mind altering substances
Take me back to my childhood
Where we loved and were loved unconditionally
Where the only thing we missed was food
And it never disappointed, always
Take me back to my childhood
Take these bills away from me
I want to start anew
And avoid paths that lead to bills and some people
