Afraid of Roses

Aging

Do you remember when you were a little kid?

When you would go outside and play with you're friends and have fun and you didn't care about anything in the world

You're top priorities were you're toys and you're family and wether or not you were getting Mc Donald's Happy meals for Dinner

But everything is different now

Now we're aging

And our society is aging so fast. Young girls feel the need to always look perfect and all done up because that's what social media has told them.

Boys have been taught to be strong and independent and that they can't cry because it's a sign of weakness.

Everyone is growing into society's norm and it's like every walking person is a clone

I wish we could go back to when we were children

When it didn't matter if you were a girl or a boy. When it didn't matter what clothes you wore or what toys you had.

When everyone shared what they had because we were always taught that "Sharing is Caring"

When our friends could come over to our houses and we didn't have to worry about doing anything stupid because no one had phones to record all the things we did

But now everything is Digitalized and Fake and computer animated

When we were kids we always wanted to grow up so that we could stay up late or drive and do all the cool things our parents did

But now we are growing up too fast and we're missing out on our youth and before we know it, everything will be gone

I wish we could go back to being kids

I wish we could stop aging
