Growing Up

As time goes on
Their faces fade
To a faint blurr
That cannot be seen
Once vivid images
That lived in my head
Now their faces
Have gone dead
I could once hear their voices
So clear that it didnt feel as if they were far
That they were incredibly near
But,now all has changed
They grew up
And I did too
Now all I can do is feel a small pain
About the loss
I have made
But,without the loss
Of my old friends
I wouldnt have made new
And I wouldnt have grown up
And do what I do
But,no matter how much their faces fade and their voices change
I will forever remember them as how they once were to me
