Growing Old
I'm not as young as I used to be, playgrounds don't hold me.
I'm not as creative as I used to be, I don't see mermaids and dragons.
I'm not as happy as I used to be, the world has changed me.
This world has changed me, and I do not like what I've become.
I want a simple world filled with fruit snacks and color.
Now all I see is carbs and grey.
No.
The world cannot change me, I am still me.
I am still creative. I just express it differently.
Nice try world, you cannot change me to be like all the rest.
I do not see in grey, I see in color.
