Her Advice

LUNAFAUS

Don't wish your years away,

she told me.

I'm older now and I realize how much you were right.

Bills and Priorities have me stressed,

Due dates have me pressed,

To be 12 again,

I'd kill for that.

I'd kill me in the now to be 12 again. 

But most likely, 

I'll end up ignoring your advice.

Don't wish your years away,

she told me. 

Oh momma,

you were right.

    Yay mommas are usually right and I could relate to many lines of this super cool poem. ESP liked how u rhymed stressed with pressed meaningfully. Yeah we were so carefree at 12 and this poem makes us long for those playful days . Kudos.
    Pls do check out my poem too. I'm a new poet here but have been writing poetry and acknowledged for it elsewhere until I found this site and wish to make new poem pals.
