Time to Grow Up

Do you really care?
Do you really think I am that dumb? …That I just can’t see… Can you see?
I am not as happy as I seem.
I am tired all the time, I am hurt all the time,
I need a place to dream, a place to breathe, a place to grow.
This is a small bowl for a BIG fish.
What am I to you?
Company?
A thing so you don’t have to be alone?
Why am I here?
Because you wanted me?
Or because you just knew you would feel bad that I had nowhere else to go.
Do you care?
Do you?
Do you know I need my mom with me?
Not just on weekends.
I don’t want to go to high school without my ‘mother’ being there.
You two, you two ARE my parents.
Time to grow up.
Understand a solid stable families lives together.
TIME TO GROW UP!
You keep telling me I need to stop being a grown one that I need to be a kid… Ha! You need to be the adult, you know? You need to see that you’re not 59 going on 18! You need to get past those stupid fears… get past those wrong thoughts. Get past the player kid in you.
