Growing up
I feel I'm being judged
for all I do and say.
When can I be free,
when is that day?
Looking in the mirror
I see to my surprise,
pan entirely different person
staring in my eyes.
I remember back to years
with no care nor worry.
Dancing to my own drum,
never in a hurry.
When did I grow up?
How can I get it back?
Wishing all the time
would run off its track.
That carefree little girl
who only wished to fly,
has now become a teen.
Just trying to get by.
