Five Year Olds

What would I see if I saw myself through your eyes?

What would I hear if I heard you talk about me?

Would I like what I see or what I hear?

What if I don't mean the same to you, as you do to me?

What if I don't inspire you as much as you do to me?

What if you don't admire me as much as I admire you?

And what about all the feelings?

What would it feel like if I touched you?

What would it feel like if I hugged you?

What would it feel like if you kissed me?

What if...

What if...

What if...

I wish we were 5 year olds. 

That way we would have said everything we thought of, expressed our feelings openly, be friends with one another, hang out together, explore and make memories together, go in adventures, hug, kiss and love each other without expecting anything in return.

If we were children, we would have appreciated the simple things in life, such as walks in the park, ice-creams or just sitting at the beach looking at the sea. 

If we were children everything would have been so much easier...

Or is it us, adults, making things difficult in the first place??
