Held Back

Want to be independent
And want to let go
Always held back
Always told no

To make my own decisions
To live on my own
Excited to leave town
And all I’ve ever known

The want to run free
In too much of a hurry
What about my fear?
What about my worry?

Held back
Not by parents
Held back
Not by love
Held back by my courage
Or lack there of

!!!YOUR COMMENTS WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!
