Turning the Page

I wrote this for my cousin last summer and forgot to post it. It makes me sad to know that we're growing a bit apart...

Cousin of mine,

 

Whom I hold close to my heart dearly,

 

I hope our friendship and bond

 

hasn’t been diminishing.

 

We haven’t seen each other in awhile

 

but we still share those laughter’s and smiles,

 

those can never be erased.

 

You've grown so much in maturity in the last years

 

You’re on your way to the air force and journeying into marriage.

 

I'm 15, still in high school

 

Every year is another hour for us

 

But remember we have our memories

 

And we are only turning the page,

 

to write the next chapter of our lives.

Yeah, its really difficult when you grow up with family always around, but as they grow older you sometimes grow apart. I hope someday to have a reunion of some sort. Thanks for reading! :)

you are very welcome

I can relate

[Desiree S.]

:) Friends and family are always there, but they move on to their "next chapter" sometimes faster than you...

[Time's The Bond]

Yeah sometimes I feel behind, sometimes I feel like I am too far ahead...Sometimes its hard to find the right pace.

Excellent read and well penned. I love to read the insightful words our youth write today. May the next chapter be as heartfelt as the memories you hold.

Thank-you! :D
