Growing Up’s So Hard
Why did no one tell me
How complex growing up would be?
Lessons of life can be so hard
Shattering your heart into tiny shards
So many mistakes I’ve made along the way
Waking up, not wanting to face another day
Loving someone can be rewarding; or not
Remembering good times, and bad; or forgot
Who can tell me
Why growing up is so tough?
Will I ever reach the stage
When I’ve learnt enough?
So many good times I’ve had along the way
Waking up, eager to face another day
To be loved by someone is essential:
To be held, kissed and feel sensual
Why did no one tell me
How hard growing up would be?
Feeling like a little girl lost
Inside a grown woman’s body

"Growing-up?" Heck, I'm still suffering from "Peter Pan Syndrome!" This is one exceptional, decisive write about the challenges of youth!! Thanks for sharing your thoughts!!

But you keep learning and growing
whether you like it or not I think.
Excellent!
When I’ve learnt enough?
I doubt if any of us will, Andrea, even if we live to be 100.
