As another year is approaching 

A number that decides my faith 

Growth along with the hurting

to write a story worth telling. 


28 is an age I feared 

because it is so far from the 18 

I was such a teen back then 

and now I feel like an old soul.


Another adventure is calling out 

A path that is made just for me.

Mistakes along with the glory 

to build a life worth longing for. 


28 is a lifetime I loathed

As it is two steps away from 30 

I am such a loner right now 

and I daydream of my plus-one. 

. . .

A/N: It's not a secret to my friends and family that I'm not a big celebrater when it comes to my birthday and all I wish for this year is a calm day filled with joy and comfort. The older I get the more I crave safety, being around people I trust and love and no parties. This poem is a little too nostalgic in that sense, but I wanted to post it anyways. 

Have a great weekend! x

With love,

M.
