"Let's both stay away from the edge of the bed, forcing us closer together." Lord..

“Grow up with me, let’s run in fields and through the dark together, fall off swings and burn special things, and both play outside in bad weather. Let’s eat badly, let’s watch adults drink wine and laugh at their idiocy, let’s sit in the back of the car making eye contact with strangers driving past, making them uncomfortable. Not caring, not swearing, don't fuck. Let’s both reclaim our superpowers, the ones we all have and lose with our milk teeth, the ability not to fear social awkwardness, to panic when locked in the cellar. Still sure there’s something down there, and while picking from pillows each feather. Let’s both stay away from the edge of the bed, forcing us closer together. Let’s sit in public, with ice-cream all over both our faces, sticking our tongues out at passers-by. Let’s cry, let’s swim, let’s everything. Let’s not find it funny, lest someone falls over. Classical music is boring, poetry baffles us both. There's nothing that’s said is what’s meant, plays are long, tiresome, sullen and filled with hours that could be spent rolling down hills and grazing our knees on cement. Let’s hear stories and both lose our innocence, learn about parents and forgiveness, death and morality, kindness and heart, thus losing both of our innocent hearts, but at least we wont do it apart. Grow up with me.” - Keaton Henson

Brings back memories of good friends. No matter how old we got, we still rolled down hills and did stupid stuff. But as we grow older, these people seem to become rarer and rarer. It's not that we lose our innocence, it's society that forces us to abandon our game of choice and play their game instead. We have simply forgotten we were innocent. We still can be if we learn to resist.

"Let’s both reclaim our superpowers, the ones we all have and lose with our milk teeth.." -- My goodness! Marvelous line!

"Poets do the world a favour by turning themselves inside out". That's a quote from my favourite TV show and I think Keaton demonstrates it's truth in both his poetry and his lyrics. He turns himself inside out. He shows the good and the bad sides of his personality. The love that he can feel for someone, and then his own feelings of vulnerability. His candor is inspirational.

Listens to this poem about 5 years ago and in 2021 I’m still watching🥰

He is such a beautiful human being.

I wish that Keaton would release a poetry album. Like this. Where he reads his poems over a soft music

this is the first time I've ever heard Keaton speak and, of course, he's blown me away yet again. his talking voice is so soothing and beautiful. such a beautiful human being with so much passion and power behind his words. i hope someday i can tell him how much his and his music means to me. x

Grow up with me. Let's run in fields and fear the dark together. Fall of swings, and burn special things, and both play outside in bad weather. Let's eat badly. Let's watch adults drink wine and laugh at their idiocy. Let's sit in the back of the car, making eye contact with strangers driving past, making them uncomfortable. Not caring. Not swearing. Don't fuck. Let's both reclaim our superpowers; the ones we all have and lose with our milk teeth. The ability not to fear social awkwardness. To panic when locked in the cellar; still sure there's something down there. And while picking from pillows each feather, let's both stay away from the edge of the bed, forcing us closer together. Let's sit in public, with ice cream all over both our faces; sticking our tongues out at passers by. Let's cry. Let's swim. Let's everything. Let's not find it funny lest someone falls over. Classical music is boring. Poetry baffles us both; there's nothing that's said is what's meant. Plays are long, tiresom, sullend, and filled; with hours that could be spent rolling down hills, and grazing our knees on cement. Let's hear stories and both lose our inocence. Learn about parents and forgiveness, death and morality, kindness and art, thus losing both of our innocent hearts, but at least we won't do it apart. Grow up with me.

Thank you !

I-I think I broke my replay button

I heard this poem over 7 years ago when I was 18. the older I get, the more I see when I hear this poem. At first, it was a girl, then a few years later it was my friends, and now I see myself when I hear it. Grow up with me means so many things across our lives, but it always stems from the same innocent part of the soul, that never changes.

I listen to this every morning when I wake up & every night before I go to sleep. Its this feel of comfort every time I hear this.

I wonder how you feel about this video/poem now...

This is my happy place.

I think Keaton Henson is such a talented artist. He makes me feel every emotion, I could listen to him all day.

This makes we yearn for a love that doesn't even exist.... Beautiful writing as usual.

Beautiful. It hit me so hard how beautiful life is when it's spent with someone.

The more I listen to this the more I appreciate how perfectly Keaton has captured the experiences of childhood. "Let’s cry, let’s swim, let’s everything", the world is massive and unknown and you just want to do everything, experience everything. Simply beautiful.

Best poem I’ve heard, so real and I get a smile when I imagine all that is said.

Oh Keaton you've created something so beautiful

This makes me shiver, smile & cry every time I hear it. Amazing

I discovered Keaton just a little over a month ago. I'm Infatuated with him in the same way that I was when I discovered Nick Drake. Few people create music and perform with such emotion and depth.

Keaton aka Poetry Jesus.

I swear everything that man does is poetry

I’ve been watching this periodically for 4 years now. It might just be my favorite poem ever.

A quote from my favourite show... "I think the poets do the world a favour by turning themselves inside out", I truly believe this is what Keaton does. He turns himself inside out and it is beautiful to hear him as he both talks and sings with a dulcet tone.

"Judging Books By Their Covers" is playing the background. For anyone wondering

He is such a beautiful human being.

so divine

That is the most beautiful voice i've ever heard

"Fall off swings and burn special things and both play outside in Bad Weather" ⛈️

I cry beautifully every time i listen to this

I don't know what it is about this poem I swear I cry when I hear it and I feel like literally everything will be ok and we need mkre people like this ...

he is the essence of why the human race is beautiful having all these feelings and being able to tell them but not wanting to

I found this song so many years ago and still it's touching me so deep that everytime i Listen i have to cry. Thank Keaton henson for Sharing these deep emotions!

This just makes me happy

i just want to love him

This man is my idol for writing, so much heart.

Amazing. No anecdote to say what this means to me, it will mean something to everyone. just beautiful.

I just finished listening to one of his songs which were great but the words he puts out are very inspiring. Teaching me to let go and be outgoing not to regret anything not to feel insecure or feel unconftorable it makes me feel free. It gives me a different perspective in the world

this brings tears to my eyes :') its so wonderfully written and the guitar compliments it perfectly

He's perfect.

why does this make me weep every single time?

My favourite poem. It just warms my heart. Oh how anyone could relate to this. Thank you Keaton

and i can't stop listening. This is killing me

immensely talented man

words can't describe how lovely this makes me feel

Let’s cry let’s swim let’s everything

Let's cry. Let's swim. Let's everything!

he is precious 💛

"Lets cry, lets swim, lets everything." Ugh.

@@josephchoucair3417 this was said many years ago, and ive only known of Keaton and his work for a couple years now. i feel compelled to defend @matthew's comment, especially after all KH has made in the past seven years, if just to expand the definition of poet to include artist and musician, as well, then yes, yes he his of the best of the 21st century so far, and i believe will prove beyond "so far", and rather for the entirety of this century. the best.

This is beautiful.

i bought his book of poems so glad i did

Brought me to tears first time I heard this !! So beautiful, real, true, funny, sad and happy at the same time .

This is so good Keaton.......Love you man....1000's like from me

My favorite poem

Man, this gives me such a warm feeling of comfort

god Keaton, you are a beautiful gentle gift to this world

this is the most beautiful thing that i have ever listened to

His voice omg 😍❤️

Beautiful ❤️

i wish this went on for longer

This is so beautiful. I just can't stop listening to it. Absolutely breathtaking.

I cried. it's so emotional!

speechless

i think he's being ironic, as the poem is about childhood and being a child, he (like most children) probably thought classical music was boring, but he probably doesn't now:) it's about the bittersweetness of looking back on how you viewed things as a child:)

That was pretty magical!

This is so nice ugh I normally don't put up comments but this is so beautiful

Too good.

god i fucking love him

Something very hypnotic about this.

This is amazing

he is a man who lives in woods, grows his beard and paints walls! i do not know him, i have not met him, i never spoke to him. yet his music talks, cries, makes us friends, lovers!

I want this on my wall, I want this written in the locket I wear around my neck, I want this to mean as much to the one I love as it means to me.

:/ I love this..

So lovely

I want a man like that tellin me these kind of things. beautiful. free

I think I'm in love

This is absolutely breathtaking, this could either be about friendship or indeed 'relationship' love. That's what makes it so incredibly beautiful, it's a poem for yourself, it's a poem which you can interpret. Amazing .

he's so beautiful, wow

I could listen to this forever to be honest...
