"Growing Pains"

KACHOW

The things I long for

Don't fit me anymore

It didn't make me stronger 

Like you said it would.

it Just hurt

 

I'm tired

I don't remember not ever being tired

Of being tired

Of being even more tired 

Of just being 

 

so no I can't relax

Because I was asked 

To grow up too fast

    Lovely poem sir, talks about things life brings ones doorstep atimes.

  • L. B. Mek

    (we're all traversing life
    at differing speeds
    and levels of consciousness
    try to remember
    you need only do, what you can
    no one can ask any more of you
    not even yourself)
    filter your life, as soon as you can
    only keep those things and people
    that understand you,
    don't worry about being 'left alone'
    if you can create a little space
    in the world, where you can feel
    safe
    then soon, you'll start to see people
    being attracted to your energy
    and those will be the people
    who'll be more likely to relate
    to the you, you aspire to be...
    (stay strong!
    thanks for sharing such a relatable read)
