i'm ready and yes ill be fine.

Rough

The day had been pretty tiresome and rough

But the cowards complain, for sure life's being tough

A moment of peace and quiet is a need

With the pleasure of silence a stressful brain I'll feed

My heart palpitates as it hears the music of the clock

Time is flying ahead too fast to future tick tock tick tock

Yes it's my fear the fear of age

My life is just a book and I'm filling another page

Writing this I'm 15 and I fear when the five becomes a nine

"It'll still be young enough", says mother, "you'll be fine"

But no it creeps, me way too much in and out

I don't know if things will still be in hand without a doubt

Maybe I won't live to that moment to see

Whether I'm living my dream or whether I lost the key

These thoughts strike my mind all the time

Whether my poetry may or may not rhyme

Whether my friends will still call me babe

Whether my future will be the cabe

Of the rope of success I'll hold

I'll be the queen bee, behold!

The weather was frosty and I saw him wave

I stepped a bit closer. My conscience was grave

There stood bleeding the past me, it wasn't lindo

Now I see myself stronger as I stare at the young lady, a reflection on the window
