The World From A Child's Eye

I once saw the world through the eyes of a child
Everything was wonderful and perfect
Everyone was happy and joyful with what they had
People did not cheat or lie
They did not fight and they did not cry

Back then everyone was a role model
Nowhere was unsafe and no one was unwanted in my eyes
When my vision finally cleared and I got rid of my foggy glasses
Everything around me had begun changing itself
Or at least that is what I thought at the time

I began noticing things my eyes had never understood before
Everything was confusing and upsetting
People didn’t care or realise what they had
People wanted more or to see the world from a child’s eyes again
People cheated people then lied
The innocent people always cried
