Being an adult is not all gold
Truths you learn, stories untold
Responsibilities and bills to pay
Dreams and hopes may fade away
No one said it would be easy
Choices to make, paths to be busy
Challenges come, you must face
Succeed or fail, it's your race
Being an adult is a test
Of character, of strength, of zest
A journey to discover who you are
And to live life, both near and far
So embrace the truth, be bold
For being an adult is a story yet untold
One that you get to write and create
A journey that's yours, unique and great.
