Through A Glass Darkly

Listen to who you were as a child

Only keep in mind you did not understand

Or fully comprehend the world

Kept in the innocence of your mind

 

But as an adult, now you see

And even understand the pain

Care must be taken when looking again

Keep in mind that you are now changed

 

Ever look back on who your heroes were as a child? Not the heroes that actually lived and/or breathed (or still live), but the imaginary ones that only existed on the screen or in a book. Sometimes you look back and you have to reevaluate if you even knew who they were in the first place, much less why they were chosen at all.
