Beauty of Youth
September 27, 2009
To be a child forever would be a miraculous thing,
To never grow up,
To never have to worry about grown-up things,
To never be burdened by heart ache or heart break,
To always see through a child’s eyes,
Never judging by color or race,
To always know peace but never know love…
But what is life is not for loving?
They say you cannot love at such a young age
For you haven’t the mental capacity,
But because children never hate with such a passion as grown-ups,
Can they not love all the better?

Cool poem dude u got talant
I had a dream the other day about Peter Pan... He was all depressed because Wendy didn't need me any more, and made me promise to always be a kid with him. A little weird since I'm much older than her, but i still consider anyone twenty or under a kid...

I have always said that i want to be like Peter Pan and never grow up and this just made me really understand why. Because children never learn to hate or judge like others do as we grow up. Great job.
