Growing Up

by Kayla Sonya Dearing   Sep 18, 2004


Almost all of my friends
Have different lives now.
We all have gone on different roads now.

Last year everywhere I turned I had friends all around me.
But this year
I go down the halls
barely see any of my friends.

I walk with my head down
My mouth shut
And just want to cry.

It hurts not to have a friend
To talk to at school.
Being alone.

Then again
Some of my friends
From last year
Aren't my type anymore

They get next to me.
I just want them to grow up

I dont tell them
How I feel though.
Ive change Since then
I cant keep being the girl that they think I am

Im still the sweet, nice, loving, caring, girl

But Ive became less Immature to a more mature girl.

The girl that could put up with the silliness
Is hardly there now.

I still have my moments
But its not like before

So I guess
Im the cause of my friends
Leaving me

Should have grown up along time ago
Well this is me now

The one who is mature then most of her friends

The one who wants to yell at her friends to grow up

I cant understand why I fell this way though.
