Time goes by so fast
I wish it would stop
I know I’m meant to be leaving soon
But it doesn’t mean that I want to
It saddens me to think about moving on
When inside I feel like I’m not ready to leave
Your whole life you prepare for this moment
Going off to college and living the dream
But no one tells about how hard it is
To leave your family and go off by your self
I want to discover new experiences on my own
But I’m terrified of actually going of any doing so
I’ve grown so used to being here everyday
That my heart hurts just thinking about it being another way
I understand that this is a part of growing up
But am I really ready to do just that
What if I fail and it doesn’t work out?
So many negative thoughts run through my head
But in the end I understand that I have to do what’s best
I have to make the right decisions
Because there are no do overs
I can only hope for the best
But I wish so badly that time would just stop
At least so I can comprehend it all
And give myself time to adjust
I’m growing up in more ways than one
And it’s almost time to begin a new chapter of my life
But I only wish for time to just stop
