The pains of growing up.

We were young and full of life We would laugh and play all day and night We would dream of a future so bright Yes there were times we would fight And times that we would go out of sight Times we thought that maybe just maybe our light might go out Times that would make us want to scream and shout Times that we were full of sadness and doubt Times that we felt trapped in the dark with no way out Times that we felt shallow Times that life was nothing but hollow Times we would lead but no one would follow Times we would think that maybe there is no tomorrow Times when our hearts felt heavy and broken Times when we felt our spirits have awoken Memories that made us happy and sad But might just be the best we’ve ever had But in all we were strong Because we knew tough times never last long Through the cold that made us shiver We never stopped being a believer That life would become less of a burden and more rewarding That the pain we felt will end up being memories of the past Even if we knew it might not be the last Yes depression and sadness was a case Even when people would say it was just a phase Falling in love and ending up being hurt With a heart that is broken and words left unspoken Feeling like the world was against us Wishing we could just hit a pause Start all over and have no regrets Praying to God and hoping for answers For we know he is our lord in who we can count on And holds great powers that we cannot phantom Times we were at our lowest but always had a smile hoping it would take us through the mile Trying to fit in trying to find our place Hoping it’s not too late Wondering if it’s just fate Having friends to have laughs with hoping it would never end Emotions we conveyed Mistakes we made Words we wish we could take back The ability to move on we wish we didn’t lack The things we tried to forget The emotions,the sadness,the tears,the laughter,we will always remember the pains of growing up.
