Another page has been turned
I now face what has been amidst the churns
Two decades have passed
I spent them drowning and wonder why no one asks
Now I can say, I'm finally over it
Now you see me smile with the eyes that lit
All the tears I've drown in have now dried up
I'm done waiting for help, I made it stop
Happy birthday Wendlenel
I wrote this now that you're feeling well
My heart swells that you're happy on this day
I wish that this feelings linger, if not stay
As you shell out the teen
You must remember what has been
The numbers that flew by
They will show you the answer why
You're turning 20 and was in secret pain
You must endure more and harbor no disdain
You're turning 20 but your youth will remain
Rest your heart for your teen years were never in vain
------
It's my birthday. April 10th
