A Time to Grow


I do not wish this upon anyone

One day we were young playing games

Doing what all kids did, played outside and had all kinds of fun

We had many endless days imagining fame

 

Little did we know…

God had other plans for our friendship and dreams

He needed you and it was your time to go

I felt my heart ripping and tearing from the seam

 

Little did we know…

No more pictures, only memories, you see

It changed my life and I had to learn and grow

I realized it was time to let it go and to rediscover me

 

She made me realize I have so much to live for

Continue growing and fulfilling my dreams, anticipating what's in store

Love one another, help, and cherish every moment

Look for opportunities and enjoy experiences that are God sent

 

Little did we know…

That she’d always be here with me, continuing to help me grow

I wrote stories all throughout my life. From 1st Grade until now, my third year of college. Writing has been a release for from, a break from the troubles and challenges of this life. I want to change lives and help others become the best they can be.
