Someday

by Sunshine   Jul 10, 2011


Someday I will discover
how to rest dignified,
proud, dear
as you expect me not.

Mature like a lady
not like this girl
that you enjoy
her giggles-
no more.

Will give up on
the random
kid you glimpse
in me.

My sweet mistakes,
and my young faults,
will lose color,
tense,
and vanish.

Then we will
switch regret,
with each other.

    This is a great example of growing up. When we're young, we have less cares, responsibility, we tend to have more fun and laugh more (sadly this SHOULD carry on into adulthood). But in adulthood we change, we turn into mature adults (hopefully). We have stresses we didn't have as kids, on top of our emotions and working on and building relationships. It can become tiresome, and you pointed that out perfectly here :)

    I love your fourth stanza, I thought that held the strongest point for me, or at least the most interest :D I love how you say they will lose color, "tense" - love the use here.

    Overall this is an awesome piece. Short, simple and to the point, with so much depth and emotion. :)

    Thats so intense, giving up that part of yourself ..

    My sweet mistakes,
    and my young faults,
    will lose color,
    tense,
    and vanish.
