Why do people say ‘childish’ like it’s a bad thing?
Childish is perfect - joy, uncomplicated, all you’ve got to do is play to be happy, make friends, eat food, sleep when you need.
They say we’re naive, idealistic.
Wouldn’t the world be better if we were all idealistic?
You all want to change the world, but don’t do it their way - slowly treading between paper trails, trapped inside your brain screaming that everything should be different.
Because when you’re a child you see
a world should be fair, equal, just;
and it’s all just a step away.
So dance away, dream away, give yourself that courage.
The courage of a world that isn’t so hard,
it’s all soft edges, kind words, comforting hugs.
We can make it for ourselves, we can make it for, each other
