A flower that bloomed too soon

a poem of going too fast--

I swallowed shards of glass

As Painful as my past 

My blood draws cold,                       

I’ve never felt this old.

See, i’m only 15 

So why do i feel 

Like i’ve lived in a field 

Of no return

cherish your childhood<3

This little poem in its brevity, left its mark on me. For a fifteen year old to feel such pain in childhood is incredibly sad. Youth should be about blooming not about suffering and yet that is the reality for many children in life today. Precious is childhood, but not for some.
