Childish Things

When is it time to put your toys away?
When do you stop being a child and no longer play?
When do you begin being an adult?
To finally put silly dreams like love away?
Is there such a day?
A day where you can learn the facts of life
A day when you see that things just werent right
A day at the mall, the first kiss or
a silly high school crush can never be more
then what they were intended for
An adolescent mark that you surpassed
Those things just become apart of your past
For they can never last
When this day will come for me
I won't care for the things I can't take back
The tears will just fade
I'll put my childish things away
When you become nothing more than part of my past
Because little things like love just can't last.
