Leaving Home


Give mother a hug Father a kiss The time has come We have talked about it Many times before But the time is now Fke a smile And turn away Start alone I must leave everything I know into a world one I do not understand Hoping to find out Who I truly am Letting go of their hands I am off not looking back This is my time my journey I have to do this my way I will walk out a woman Ready to face the world.
