Growing Up

Someday, I'll grow old

It happens to us all

Or so I'm told

We start so yound and innocent

And keep on growing 

Till our lives are spent

Someday, I'll grow old

But till then my dreams sit 

Just collecting mold

Shelved somewhere high and dusty

They start to ferment

Till they're sour and musty

Someday, I'll grow old

Unless I find a reason

To keep an iron hold

On the things that keep me going

And I don't hesitate

To start on growing
