Adolescence

growing up, maturing, aging

 

Nobody.

I dunno.

Not me.

The ghosts of my childhood.

Hidden gremlins of ethics,

The malevolence ensues.

We are blamed for deceit.

Our parents never believed.

As i aged,

I gained wisdom

And the belief faded.

Only to reappear

In my children's

Words...

:) Love that ending, made me smile, how true is that- I loved how you opened this with those words made famous by children the world over.
