Chapter 667

Growing Up

There are many challenges in everyday life
The direction becomes clouded
It leads to much worry and strife
Few painful event are shrouded

Starting out we make few choices
Others dictate what will be
There are always many voices
Few care what they actually see

At some point in time
Everyone must step up to the plate
Away fades youth that was once prime
We must hurry up and then learn to wait

Who is there to care and listen
Most seem empty and hollow
Some will shine and glisten
Deeper is better than shallow

What offers promise and a future
Often soon ends in a breakup
That nothing can suture
It is painful indeed to grow up
