When I Was a Child

When I was a child

Money
Was amusing paper
Of vivid colors

When I was a child

Happiness
Was where the butterfly’s rest
And the bird’s sang

When I was a child

Rain
Was god’s will
Telling us
To cry with the soul

When I was a child

My heart
belonged to the sea
Swaying
back and forth
liberated from it’s uncertainties

But all of this
Was when

I didn’t know
the world

only that place
where skys sympathize
and the ground catches

I was once
that child
