TOO FAST

secondspace

 

I forgot when last time I mention my dream

My parent so excited to listen

Tell them I want grow and mature

Go anywhere and anytime I want

Just like them who never in bet at night

Sleep when they feel sleepy

After doing many things that I thouhgt so  cool

 

Taking breakfast with phone in hand

Talking to many people about money

Rising voice while chewing

Almost forget to kiss my forehead

 

They are so cool I guess

Do not need permit what they want to eat

It just me who never break their rules

Try to enjoy my dinner waiting for their calling

And tell stories I never finish

 

Now

I am here

Being old like them before

Growing with my age will never back

Setting my alarm for chasing train

At least my parent have their own car

Still eat simple stew from their maid

 

I run like sprinter

With full of hand cracker

Every month split bill with next budget

See people same with me

Struggle for enough dinner

But hoping for a luxurious house

 

Mom, dad

Can I back

Just sleep waiting for you

Not telling you about my dream

Not asking to be old
