Growing up is like a


Growing up is like a busy city street. 

The hustle and bustle, twisting and turning.

Small glimpes of conversation.

A glance into the lives of others. 

But only for a second - you must keep moving. 

Being pushed here and pulled there.

Stop. Go. Turn. Straight. 

Constantly being pulled by the will of others,

before long it’s you controlling the next.
