Favorite Quote:
This is your life and it's ending one minute at a time.


Whatever happened to those good ol’ days?
Before time was born and worry raised,
When you could do what you want and not have a care,
Where you could just run around and ramble the air,
Flowing freely; relaxed and content
No straining pressure, calm and well spent
Oh how I’d kill for those days,
When my life was a haze,
But now I’m filled with malaise,
Trapped in this maze.

I wrote this poem because I miss being a little kid. I had no worries in Elementary school and Middle School, but High School just keeps loading me with more pressure.

I hope people can relate to wanting to have this "relaxed and content" life.
