Happy Birthday To Me

Happy Birthday To Me

A Poem by J Clark
"

Things change from year to year, usually for the worse.

"
Happy birthday to me 
Think of how great 16 could be 
I'll get my permit, Ill get to drive 
I feel so alive 
There's so many things that I want to do 
There's so many things that I have to choose  

Year 17, I'm a dancing queen 
I got a happy birthday from the whole cheer team
Life is good, and good went great  
I have that girl I get to date 
She was tall and blonde, cool and fun 
But it was pretty sad when we were done 

One year later I'm 18 
Yea I'm eighteen 
This years gunna be great 
I'm gunna get to graduate 
I'm not on drugs, and I'm have a good time
I'm a good boy, despite all my secret crimes
There's endless possibilities of what I can do 
If they can do it, I can too 

19, a hard 19 
I went to school, 
 as a freshman I played it cool 
Avoided parties and gaggles of hoes
I'm feeling fine i suppose 
I met this girl, and shes the best 
I don't care about the rest,  
I'll do anything and I'll love her forever 
I just hope that we’ll stay together 

I'm 20, yea just twenty 
I'm still in college but i have no money
I cheated on my girlfriend,  
I lost my friends 
I'm stuck wondering, 
where is the end 
I'm sad, I'm alone, 
 I just wanna go home

 The funny thing is about getting older 
Your feelings get stronger and emotions get bolder 
When it’s dark, I feel depressed 
I can eat anything, and I get no rest 
All I can do, is sit and cry, 
 If I don't change soon, I'll probably die
