It’s been 15 years,
15 years full of smiles and tears.
I’ve had people come and had people go,
I’ve lied and I’ve been lied to.
Made some friends and some acquaintances,
But I’m still trying to make clear the differences.
I’ve made some bad decisions, but why is that?
My frontal lobe is still underdeveloped, haha, get that?
I’ve blamed people for my mistakes,
And I’ve realized this world is all about give and take.
I’ve come to see that actions speak louder than words,
But words sometimes do mean a lot.
I’ve had bad thoughts about good people,
And felt like some things were just too simple.
I’ve had humans pull me down and try to manipulate me,
And sometimes where hope was, I couldn’t see.
I’ve had what I needed, but not what I want,
And learnt that there’s nobody you can really trust.
My priorities have changed continuously,
And my actions sometimes occur conspicuously.
I’ve learnt when to let go and how to move on,
And that people are always going to try to prove you wrong.
15 years, that’s a long time, to learn and teach
And sometimes maybe preach,
To forgive and forget,
And always be alert,
To accept that this world doesn’t revolve just around you,
And forever and ever to you and yourself, stay true.
Cause people are people,
And some things are inevitable,
The truth does really hurt and lies cut deep
But know the difference between when to rest and when to sleep,
Because sometimes the disparity between two things isn’t so clear.
Oh, and one more thing, don’t forget to stay humble and remember to stay sincere.
