Dear Past me
Why weren't you just happy to be a kid
Why did you want to grow up and become, this
Why did you beg so much for rights and independence
now I complain so much for both of them
I don't get it
we live
then
we die
we want to grow up
then
we want to rewind
we want to be grown ups
then
we want to go back to our past lives
Past me, what did we want in life?
cause nieither of us were happy
since our dreams just turned into a dumb fantasy
we wanted to be what we are currently doiung
but I want to be that careless kid again with the least of responsibilities and worries
I guess in the past
we didnt worry about taxes
we didnt worry about student loans
we didnt worry about college tution and where it really goes
we didn't worry about money
we didn't worry about work
we just wanted to grow older so
we can move out of the dependant life
and into the dirt
We should of listened to mom and dad
get the good grades
don't just cruise inbetween lanes
just to live life your way
you still have to work hard then play
not play the work hard
Now look at where we are
feeling like a disgrace
losing faith
not caring if your dieing
cause your gonna leave at some point
Trying to finish college but your struggling in that race
So Past,
if you ever get this message be happy with what you currently have
Cause you won't know what you had until it's gone
and your heart turned black
You forgot to check the pages before judging the book by its cover
and because of that
Cathcing up is where we are at

I hear this from so many people. My mama always said, "stay a kid as long as you can." -

This part! This is a beautiful poem, and I think that many kids, preteens, teens need to know this before stepping into adulthood to prepare for the real world. -
Great one Othello! It's good you're sharing this. A lot of younger people could benefit from this advice.
