Towards Adulthood

From seventeen to eighteen,
Its just a number away.
From a child to an adult,
My life is taking it's way.
From the start to the end,
I've seen me make my ways.
From happiness to sadness,
My journey has both to convey.
From trying to failing,
I've learnt to never leave it midway.
From soup to nuts,
I've learnt to catch my prey.
From zero, to my own hero,
I found myself with every next birthday.
From then to now,
I compare myself, and now I slay.
