Lost in Growth (Speak Your Mind Scholarship)
I feel as if I am lost in growth.
"Who am I?" I ask as I get old.
Only sixteen but I already hear myself scream.
I don't know if this is a reality or a dream.
Should I continue flying on the swings?
Or should I start to fly on my own wings?
Lost in growth. I think I am starting to grow up.
Seeing the real world makes me want to throw up-
because people make mistakes last forever.
I guess I lost my trust towards whomever.
I make mistakes. I guess I lost trust in myself
Lost in growth. Who am I? I am begging for help.
Not depressed, but rather compressed, I'm not doing enough.
I feel alone as I see the mature world, times are tough.
I remember when I was young, happy because I knew who I was everyday.
But now I can only envision the mature life and it's problems overlay.
I feel like I need help because I don't know who I am anymore.
How can I ask for help when I can't even trust myself, I'm at war.
I am at a war with myself and I feel as if I am losing.
How can I lose if my mistake and success is due to my choosing?
I feel like a gemini but my horoscopes says cancer.
I am always afraid because I do not know the answer.
I am lost in growth like a teen's voice in puberty.
I do not know who I am anymore.
