Growing Up

Growing up is a funny thing.

Thoughts that used to seem important aren’t.

Thoughts that weren’t important than are important now.

Its scary…

Somehow our appearance matters now?

Somehow were all sad, but just a tad?

We’re lying.

How’d we get here?

Time

Change

Existence

The creek bubbles

laughing at my troubles

And I think to myself of the grand explorations that USED to occur

filled with

pirates,

mermaids,

sharks,

And the new adventure ahead of me waiting to take place…

an adventure that would never become a long lost memory to

change

Time

Existence

In the basement when I first found my love for gymnastics

with Ally on the side finding her love of dance.

where did that go?

The deep love we USED to feel?

where is that now?

Gone. with

Existence

Change

Time

Tick…

Tick…

Tick…

Stop.
