Let Go
I hate feeling like a kid
Helpless and dependent.
I hate feeling like an adult,
Helpless and independent.
Senior in high school, where should I be?
Feels like everyone is so far ahead of me.
I wish I could go back to Barbie and Barney days,
Instead I’m stuck with tuition bills and dorm rooms.
Am I wrong to want to be on my own,
But not know what to do?
Am I wrong to want to reverse time,
But keep my independence?
College, a wedding, then children.
I have more to look forward to, but how do I get there?
Blind faith, someone says,
And I let go.
