I left a part of me behind…

I left a part of me behind
Rushing and racing to leave this place
Couldn’t get out fast enough
The pony was at my door
My mind was telling me to run like the wind
Don’t stop, don’t look back, don’t feel, just run
Couldn’t see the face on my watch
I was moving too fast
No grass growing under these feet
Thought sugar plum alley was too old
The only thing being older than
My sugar plum alley was dirt and water
I am tired of this cold hard dirt under my feet
I have this need to feel the grass under my feet again
Slowing down now, looking ahead
All I can see is the big world is after me
There’s a sign up ahead, reading, cross at your own risk
Turning around slowly, heading back to my sugar plum alley
