So, this week has been another rough week personally. It's OK though, I'll get over it. I'm an adult and will continue to act like one, no matter how many people try to bring me down. I won't go into details, but will say it has absolutely nothing to do with my writing and/or my books; with the exception that it has helped fuel the fire in creating today's little ditty.
Grow Up

As a child I couldn't wait,
To have my own life and learn from mistakes.
Daydreaming about how things would be,
'When I grow up, I'll be free...'

As the years flew by in a flash,
I try to recapture all the things from my past.
No longer wanting the responsibility,
'When I grew up, I still wasn't able to just be me...'

Still surrounded by vicious lies,
Playing by the rules, while others will despise,
Thought I left high school years ago,
'I grew up, yet have nothing to show...'

Wishing we could just get along,
Wanting to know what I did so wrong,
Though, deep down in my gut,
I keep wishing you'd just grow up!
