3. *Bring Me Back

Bring me back to being little.
Bring me back to playing--not hanging out.
Bring me back to looking forward to school.
Bring me back to thinking the world was my playground.

Bring me back to eating food and not worrying what it did to me.
Bring me back to loving life.
Bring me back to when it mattered what color toothbrush I got at the dentist.
Bring me back to childhood.

Bring me back to when I didn't care.
Bring me back to cooties.
Bring me back to recess.
Bring me back to me.

  1. I stole a line from each stanza. Bring me back to thinking the world was my playground, to loving life, and to me. I really liked this poem.
