I used to think

growing up

was the best thing

that could happen

to me.

Now as I sit and think,

I wonder,

why I wanted to give up my

carefree

and happy life

so darn badly,

just to enter a world,

where great things are expected,

and failure,

is not an option.

I cannot change the past,

though I can make most of the present.

So come my friends,

and together,

we shall live life to the fullest,

minute by minute,

day by day.

So enjoy it while you can

honey,

cuz it ain't gonna last forever.
