Take me back to the good old days where I was happy and joyful. Where I used to run around and be care free about everything. Where I used to smile and not worry about anything. Take me back to the good old days.

Take me back to the good old days where the only time I cried was when mom beat me or I got into a fight with my friend. Take me back to the old good days where I didn’t know about judgement, where I could play the whole afternoon, screaming, throwing sand at my friends.

Take me back to the good old days where I didn’t know about hate; those where good old days, where the only goal I wanted to reach was to be papa ko mantlosaning. Take me back to the good old days when sleeping on a couch and waking up on the bed; where the only pain I got was seeing mommy leaving. Take me back to the good old days where my smile was real.
