But I Was Just A Kid

But I Was Just a Kid
I watched the children play joyfully,

I wished I had as much as they did.

I had were hours of work, sadly,

But I was just a kid.

I went to school the very next day.

I watched as the children threw away lids.

Of drinks I will never even dare to say.

But I was just a kid.

But looking back, after all of that,

Well, at least I am still living.

I learned to appreciate everything, from food to hats

I learned some important things.

But now, at least I am wiser and old.

And looking back, I am not sad or mad.

I am also now less bold.

I grateful for what I had.
