There Were the Days

There were

The days we

Breathed life

In twice.

There were the days

We painted our world

In flowers and fairytales.

There were the days

We lived freely

Chasing rainbows

And fireflies

Watching them

Glow

When the day

Had closed

And the darkness came.

There were the days

When we lived life

To the fullest

Not in fear

But in childlike faith.

There were the

Days our world was

Covered in hope

And we didn’t wait

Until sleep to

Chase our dreams.
