sixteen

my desire to stay forever young increases

and i grasp onto those memories and cherish them to pieces 

what if i want to stay sixteen?

still slender and lean


the excitement for the little things is washing away

as each day nears towards my birthday;

yes i've lost some friends in the past

it's okay because your similarities won't last


some stay and i'll always love the times we spent together

even in this awful ohio weather;

as we become older everyone get's a lil wise

like letting go of those poor fireflies 


growing up is terrifying 

and no, your parents and friends are not lying

when they tell you they will miss you

but you'll just nod your head and think, you will too

----

all the love
