Boy

I want to be 6 again where every mistake I made was brushed away.'He's too young to know better, poor boy don't get angry with him.' I want to be a boy again being a man isn't as great as I had anticipated. I have to take responsibility I am liable for everything that I do or say and I have to bear the consequences. When I was a young boy everything seemed so perfect life was good, filled with nothing but smiles. Now tears seem to fill the void left by the smile that one beamed from cheek to cheek. I wish my life wasn't so complicated at times. I wish I could just be contented with the simple things but I know I can't, I have built myself to want and yearn for the best and never to settle for anything less. I want so badly to achieve so much in my life, but is it going to make me happy? This purist of success has made me a very blessed man in the eyes of many and yet my life seems so hollow and meaningless. I am missing something from my life which I have tried to fill with everything I can think of, religion, money, partying, girls oh well I know seems weird putting religion with the rest but yes I have tried everything but nothing fills that void. Maybe I am the only one who can fill it. My contentment is all that can fill it. I just want to laugh again like a little kid a laugh that comes from the bottom of my heart a smile that just beams across my face with the least of reason. I want to be a boy again.
