More to life than that

I glow and grow when I learn new things Like navigating new places I learn to live and mingle making friends And bonding with new friendly face Everyone will pay attention to hip new trends But with myself I learned to make amends Not with the latest gadget or toy or piece of clothing There was something more that I was holding Not the thirst to receive, but the thirst to achieve Something greater. Giving. You get to a point in your life Where things may not always be right But instead of turning to needing and wanting The truth becomes daunting That you are growing and glowing And learning that flaunting is not the way to go. You becoming better than what you know And maturity and strength you start showing Material things are not for which you should care When I learned this is when I became better Now I glow like a stick and grow like my hair We will I go back to being superficial? Never!
