Once we were kids oblivious
Of nothing but life
Our laughters were infectious
Were were full of life;
Our worries laid on wet sand
Childish dreams were true:
We would sail to different lands
Every star and moon.

Then, the worst happened to us:
Metamorphosis;
Joy means less to us
Failure kills like a disease
Success gives hubris
Success becomes all there is.

this poem attempts to portray the bliss of childhood: Our initial innocence and the loss of it partly due to our pursuit of success and our hatred and fear of failure.Many can no longer enjoy life because of their notion of success and failure and their determination to make it at all cost.I would have shared it here some days back but I've been toofixed up. Krystalzkris, oya come.
