Growing Pains
When a child you're told the agonizing pain in your legs means you're growing.
Now being grown doesn't mean the pain goes away.
Just like you, the pain grew.

So much easier it was to rely on creams and wet cloths to make the pain go away but now not even medications can make the pain fade.

Being all grown up isn't all it's cracked up to be.
Balancing life, school, and work just seems like so much effort for nothing.

So much easier it was to pretend being all grown up.
Pretending to be the world's greatest artist, the best police officer ever seen, the most amazing baker ever known, the finest chef in the world, or sometimes just being you.
Since when did that become so hard to do?..

Now, all grown up you look back and wish for one...
