THE LOST CHILDHOOD

When I was a child,
I conquered a world for myself
A picture of paradise,
So precise to me
My eyes.. the morning light
Dreamt under the new sun,
A new dream each day.
Being among colours,
Under the arched rainbow 
Was the world of a little child.
Which stood for a while..
As time passed by,
The story-teller died
A childhood soon lost, incomplete
I realised, 
I wasn't a child anymore.
