I Grew Up
April 18, 2018
I grew up with such high hopes
With fancy dreams in mind
Pictures of princesses and kisses
Floating through a happy life
But as I grew these things changed
And seemed to prove me otherwise
Kisses became just memories and
Princes were just devils in disguise

Honestly, just living life as a teenage girl is what inspired this. Life is rough and my life is definitely not what I pictured it to be like as a kid.
