Poem I had to write for Tangents

[Jasper Dunst]

It got put into my school's tangents magazine =]
It's not that good,
but I had nothing better to do...
So I'm posting it.

Growing Up

As we grow,
We progress,
We Mature,
We forget.

Not having any care in the world,
Getting tucked in at night,
Being read a story until your eyelids collapse,
Its the good life.

As we grow,
We progress,
We Mature,
We forget.

Being walked to your first day of school,
Holding Daddy's hand so tight,
Never wanting to let go,
Holding with all your might.

As we grow,
We progress,
We Mature,
We forget.

Suddenly you're a teenager.
Talking back,
Learning to drive a car,
Learning to be yourslef.

As we grow,
we progress,
We mature,
We forget.

Now you're walking down that isle,
Taking your deploma,
About to spread your wings,
and fly to the open world.

As we grow,
we progress,
We mature,
We forget.

You will always remember Mr. Cuddles,
You will always remember your friends,
but most of all,
You'll remember growing up.
