When I Was Your Age

Think I mentioned my idea for this a few posts ago? I got it yesterday =]

But not writing a poem about it because the seems silly xD 

When I was your age

I wasn't like that, right? 

I was older when I did that

and that 

most definitely that

Or maybe they're not the ones

growing up too quickly

I am.

And as the technology increases

so does the ageing process

leaving us reeling 

and trying 

to keep a firm grasp 

on our own reality

and look back fondly

on the fantasy 

of when we were that age. 

Wasting Away

When I'm older 
I want to be me
not like them
still passionate
not tired
not resting
but living
appreciating 
the smaller things
happy
free. 


When I'm older 
I want to be alive
not wasting away.

New Chapter

Gaining a year,
every year
will become 
tiresome 
scary
a stone plummeting 
through the system
making you
feel heavy


but


for now
it means a change
for the better,
making life speed
not drag
not so much the closing
of a book
but the beginning
of a new chapter.
