Children's Eyes

In the eyes of a child the world is so clear No masks to hide no shadows to fear They see the truth in every smile While we get lost mile after mile Children know the way To cut through the grey They find the light In the darkest of nights No need for masks or lies Just pure unclouded skies We complicate with ego's demand Trapped in our mind's tangled strands But a child's heart so pure and free Reminds us what we could be Let's strip away the layers we've built The fears and doubts the shame and guilt Embrace the world with open hearts Rediscover where it all starts A child's laughter so pure so true Reminds us of the joy we once knew They chase the light their spirits soar While we get caught in wanting more We wear our masks hide behind our pride Seeking approval from the world outside But what if we could see through their eyes? Simplicity without disguise Children know the way To cut through the grey They find the light In the darkest of nights No need for masks or lies Just pure, unclouded skies
