I Hate Growing Up
I hate growing up because I missed the hold me that liked the girl in the mirror.
I hate growing up because it’s hard.
Life is hard.
It takes over.
I hate growing up because I was happier before I knew what depression even was
I hate growing up because I want to live in the past
I hate growing up because I’m scared of the future,
but mostly I hate growing up because I had always pictured us doing it together and all my life.
I had never thought you would leave.
I hate growing up because I understood what it meant to lose you.
I hate it because through my tears I had to watch people warn you.
I had to watch my family break.
I hate growing up because I can’t be in a world without you.
I hate going up because I don’t live in fairytales anymore and said I have to live and in reality where you are gone
I hate growing up because I have to act like nothing ever happened like you didn’t die
like I didn’t watch my cousin go 6 feet in the ground.
I hate growing up because I feel guilty doing it without you.
I hate growing up because I don’t wanna grow up without you
