When I was Little

When I was little,
I would spend hours running after a fly
Just for the fun of it, I would cry.
.
When I was little,
My mouth was full of truth
And my lies could be detected in my eyes
.
When I was little,
I had no heart for malice
And no evil thoughts on my heart.
.
Now as an adult,
Pride becomes my best friend
Seeing it as self-esteem
.
wish I was little forever,
And act like a child {that I was}
Without the influence of adulthood
