Changing with Age

Changing with Age

A Poem by Shiningwolf

Birth....

 

Little child, little child

Watching you play

Not knowing the truth

Unaware of pain.

 

13 years...

 

Little teen, little teen

Watching you text

Not knowing your future

Unaware of what's next.

 

18 years...

 

Young adult, young adult

Watching you date

Not knowing your job

Unaware of your fate.

 

30 years...

 

Grown up, grown up

Watching you work

Not knowing your time

Unaware of your baby's growth.

 

65 years...

 

Wise senior, wise senior

Watching you sit

Knowing everything there is

Aware of your fate.

 

As time passes

People change too

Gaining experience through their journey

Learning of what is true.
