Spring to winterA Poem by Rookie12Its a edited and you can say a version which has a language with kinda standadrd words. It was edited by a frnd and I am proud to say that they made it far better than I could ever write it.
When did I learn the secret of life?
Was it when my theory blew up in my face? That i'm all alone when I can't see you? Or was it when I finally knew Monsters aren't hidden under the bed Locked away tight in a figment of imagination. But mingling in our world? Right along side with us? Or was it when Somebody told me Sun and moon dont Walk with us Or when I saw Dad hiding gifts Under the Christmas tree? When did my life go from purity to a harsh winter? In spring time I lived my life But like all good things in life, it left me And life swapped seasons, Leaving me with the bitterness of winter, Longing for the warmth of ignorance. Or did it flee when I found out that people lie. They lie for fun, for pain, for revenge or gain? That people don't truly love you They only use you, Or the time The precious penny, Turned worthless, Even a hundred dollars could no longer satisfy the greed that grows within us. Is it when I came to know The more older you turn The lesser you are loved That people lose the things they care about the most? Maybe it left me too As I started to grow older It started loving me lesser Maybe Life spun, leaving me lost on the roller coaster of life. If they say life comes with its ups and downs, Then why, why does the world seem to forget the ups as you grow older? Until the only thing left is a ride hurtling into emptiness. It is when the seasons of my life Change from spring to winter And I develop a cold heart Replacing the other innocent me, that I ask myself, Why? © 2021 Rookie12Author's Note
