Adulthood is a Murderer


Adulthood is a murderer 
 
Sucking the life out of sweetly serendipitous smiles
 
Growing up is a massacre of dreams 
 
Reality is adulthood greedily gobbling hopes
 
They say don’t’ grow up too fast
 
I can only dream and hope
 
Dreams that are alive
 
Hopes that become real
 
Reality that is truly alright
