Adolescent Agnst


We want to be treated like adults When we still act like kids Making the same old mistakes And falling on our faces again I want to grow up But I'm not yet a grown up Childhood is long gone and Of adolescence I'm not too fond Maturity goes hand in hand with age It's a fact that will never change Respect is earned too sowly Starting out as very lowly I want a chance to prove I can Be the adult that I think I am Start my own life and not look back Footsteps falling on that path Leading me towards an ancient goal Setting me up for Nature's tole Someday I'll be old and spent And I tell you the story and what it meant
