Imsorry babygirl
I can't play with you,
too busy dropping bombs.
I know you want to blow your bubbles
but the sounds of the battle
disturb your ability to enter that childhood fantasy world.
Imsorry you can't play with your dolls
outside of your house
but I'd rather you be safe
inside the rubble of your old home
than a victim of gigantic boots scurrying, but accidentally
leaving shoeprints on
your face
your feet
that they did not see
Imsorry adults are so dumb
that we forget to have fun
and now you have to suffer
this is how the potty-trained elite play
turn games from fantasy to reality
but it seems like we only manifest our darkest ideas
and leave the beauty behind
in our diapers
babygirl promise you won't grow up to be like us.
Remember your experience
and assure the future, you learn
from our insensitive mistakes
we memorized our biased history
only to repeat it
it doesn't have to to be like this
Babygirl, promise when you grow up
you won't rob a child's youth
that you won't steal their innocence
Promise me
you'll be a kid forever
and create a world with Peter Pan
Neverland, but Foreverland
Babygirl, Imsorry we're too busy stuck in the competition
we teach you to destroy your friends for your own gain
Imsorry we create paradoxes
where we educate you in school to be one way
cooperate, remain nonviolent
but as you grow older, we tell you to peel off that positive skin
Imsorry for all the lies and
unnecessary fights
sorry we argue about Santa Claus' existence
but tell you to have an imagination
Imsorry we instill in you that logic is greater than feeling
and to ignore your intuition
Imsorry classrooms are filled with limitless inspirational quotes
but we tell you that you're fininte, limited, and destined to fail as you grow older
Imsorry we confuse you
But please try to understand
we are indeed leaders,
confused within.
try to understand
try to understand
we were only raised by people who had their innocence stolen too
No, sweetie it's not an excuse,
just an explanation so you can
See Love
I hope you Be Love
more than we are currently Being
we are fools, fools of adulthood
you are Love
don't let us change you
remain true to your pureness
even if the world seems completely opposite than how you feel it should be
sometimes it can feel like that
but Love is always the answer
so answer that to any question;
you'll always be right
A light is always with you
you can never be lost
don't be afraid to close your eyes and look within
don't turn your head our direction
we may not be the best example
imsorry for that
imsorry we have forgotten how to listen to our own wisdom
and leave you with this world of constant war
even if it seems you will always be the same
remember you hold the power to create change
imsorry babygirl
that we're changing the wrong things
i hope you can forgive me
can forgive us
and see that you are Love
We are Love
Babygirl, Imsorry
Just return to your mind and build something beautiful
while we destroy your world
think of all the positive things in life
and find gratitude
even if
you feel there's no reason for it to exist
I know our foolish game has left you
home-less
parent-less
emotion-less
and leg-less
but remember weresorry
Her bloodfilled tears
streamed down her face like
an emotionally confused waterfall
ejecting connection with us
Stars in her eyes fade to blackness
Zombielike, she moves
I hope we haven't lost her.
Babygirl I love you!
but her Spirit remains mute
