Anytime Now

Before life gets complicated
Before I become more than who I am now
Before obligations and expectations fill my path between dreams and reality
Before I make the break from then and now
Before I realize the world of innocence is gone, childrens play is there and gone lawsuits at hand, taxing the right to live freely, seeking redemption, wanting vindication.
Before I realize everything I had is gone
Before I realize nothing will be the same again
Before I realize I have to lock the toy box away
Before I become the childhood dream, the peter pan foe, the adult who bites his tongue and tucks away for later days that never come.
Before I'm gone.
