Just a Child

Contributed by sarah_may on Friday, 7th November 2003 @ 01:29:01 AM in AEST
Topic: MiscPoems



You call me just a child,
And that may be true.
But if you looked inside,
You'd see just what I knew.

I am not stupid,
But Im not saying that Im smart.
It doesnt take a genius,
To see how our world is falling apart.

You say Im just a child,
But Im mature beyond my years.
Ive seen the pain and torment,
Which brought me to face my fears.

I could die tomorrow,
Never felling lifes peak of bliss.
So the next time you say Im just a child,
Please remember this.

Your childhood probably lasted,
Much longer than mine;
Cause unlike you,
I had to grow-up way ahead of time.

Tomorrow lies before me,
While yesterdays behind;
But today Ill seek the good things,
Hoping I might find.

What my lifes about.
Ill try to have some fun,
Whether good or bad,
Its better than having none.

So if I am just a child,
Just a little kid,
All of my blessings,
Unto you I bid.

I can make a difference,
Even though Im small.
Cause on the inside where it counts,
I am really tall.

So do me just one favor,
It may not be easy for you,
Never call me just a child,
Cause Ive seen as much as you have too.

On the context of your poem: Life has many roads to choose. Most of us choose a mixture of good and bad. It's a learning curve. It can be beautiful at times and it can tear your heart out. Live it and be happy....I enjoyed reading your poem because I flowed along with it. I like your style since it seems to fit into my own. I look forward to reading more of your works. thanks for sharing!
