In a blink of an eye

Having a big imagination and believing in anything.

Believing in Santa, the tooth fairy, and monsters.

Pretending to be a mermaid, a princess, and a fairy.

Not caring what others say and not caring how I look.

Being myself and nobody can pop my bubble.

Having no problems, stress-free, and less sadness.

Always has energy and always happy.

 Disliking any type of veggies and loves eating sweets.

Obeying adults and never has a smart mouth.

All of this changed in the blink of an eye.

Stopped using my imagination and started to be realistic.

Not believing anymore unless seeing with my own eyes.

Don't play pretend anymore, the thought of it is dumb.

Caring what others think and how I look.

Making sure I fit in and look normal.

Acting like a different person around others so I have friends.

Lazy most of the time, wanting to sleep all day.

Having so many problems and always stressing.

Letting others get into my head and hating that I'm not like them.

Eating fewer sweets because want my teeth perfect.

Trying to eat healthy so I could have the perfect body.

Liking all types of veggies realizing they're not so bad.

Arguing with parents and being disrespectful.

Experiencing all those changes in my life is an eye-opener.

Totally different person I have become.

I see it now and feel it.

I'm not a kid anymore and wish I still was.
