Adolescence As It Lessens:
Eighteen and lost for time
One day you'll soon be twenty five
And then your teen years have completely
Passed you by
It's not so much that I miss the high school halls
That I miss the rebellion and skipping role call
It's that I know I will never be that girl again
I will be the adult struggling to meet low wage
And then
Returning home to an empty house
With even emptier pockets and hearts
Responsibilities weighing on
All the memories I used to have
All the feelings of nostalgia.
So hold on to your youth
While you can
And let your adolescence
Have a chance
To let you feel everything
You might not feel again.
