Glow_ing Up


From a little my days as a little boy,

Filled with folly and lots of toys,

My mental health was constant.

 

Slowly things began to change,

My body, height, and vocal range,

Things changed within my mind.

 

A swirl of voices all around,

Never stopping their incessant sound,

Time to change course.

 

It is time I made an adult decision,

Now to end this grand delusion,

Inviting help from others.

 

Feeling better, I start to glow,

My inner adult starts to show,

I finally feel confident.
