My own Future
June 27, 2013
Do not say I cannot decided my own future
I have watched 5478 sunsets
I have felt heartbreak and love
I have witnessed death and birth
I have watched people grow up and grow old
I have dreams
My back isn’t empty anymore
Its full of mistakes I carry with me
And lessons I have yet to learn
I watched the ebb and flow of the tide
Watched the waves take people under
Seen what real grief looks like
I’ve had a best friend die.
Don’t say I’m immature
Don’t say I wouldn’t understand
Don’t base my intellect on my age
Base it on my experiences
