As our brain expands,
our heart will shrink.
Life is not as easy
as the child might think.

wisdom brings regret,
regret diminishes empathy
and thus growth can poison your soul

The older we grow,
it falls apart.

the more we know.
But with the knowledge we obtain,
Our willingness to love we abstain.

but sadly does the capacity to love
purely shrink with it.

and the heart grows;
the closed heart becomes jaded,
and the mind , though fuller, closed.

our mind controls more of our lives
consuming the happiness and purity
we have as a child.

associated with wisdom and age

and you have less to ponder;
then you have learnt no wonder ;
to keep the child in you alive forever

the sorrow of knowledge.

the smaller our heart becomes

Innocence gives more room for love and joy.
Experience sucks it out of us.

As we grow older,
time and experience turns us away
from our heart and to our mind.
