Analysing my own character… xD

SWEET CHILD
There is a child in me which never grows -
a Peter Pan - most viciously content
whenever it convinces me to spend
hours on leisure and idle repose.
Nothing to do all day or play a game
is everything my inner child requests,
begging incessantly to screw the rest -
to screw my adulthood and stay the same.
I do not want to listen to this voice
and yet I need to follow its advice -
foolish I choose to be rather than wise
and listen to advisers who are false.
Though I desire change, I need it not,
or rather want only a part of it;
to be mature, yet always be a kid;
stay fresh inside - only outside to rot.
