Childhood innocence

by Trinity Rayne

I once had a tube full of ooze and bubbles
I had it as a child
When i look back at having it my life was full of less troubles
I felt like in those moments i could be free and wild
I looked at the tube with ooze and bubbles and temporarily my troubles would stop
I wish I can turn back time
I wish my life full of troubles just like those bubbles in the tube can also pop
I wish my life can be at it's prime
I look at the tube of bubbles and ooze and see how life used to be simple
I look at it's reflection and see my childhood
I look back on and see where i used to smile and show off my dimple
I see the tube of bubbles and ooze and see how life was once a little good
There were no bills to pay
I used to be my own boss
I felt i could do things my own way
When i looked into the tube with bubbles and ooze there was a moment of bliss without the chaos
I could look in the tube and see the ooze swirl around
I could sit and look into it all day long
I could sit and look into it and some peace could be found
I could look inside the tube and not have to remain strong
I could give up control
I could let my guard down
Looking inside the tube of ooze and bubbles wasn't even dull
Looking inside the tube I could smile and be happy with no frown
That was part of being a kid to me and i felt no shame
It was my childhood innocence and i could be in my own space
I didn't have the weight of this world on my shoulders and things feeling like they'll stay the same
I felt I could just be and do things at my own pace
I knew no hardships when i looked in the tube with bubbles and ooze
I knew no struggle when I could just sit and look without care
I knew no sadness and no blues
I knew no pain in those moments not even despair
