remember when getting high ment swinging on the playground?
when the only things you could get from boys were cooties?
dads sholders were the highest place on earth and mom was the hero?
your worst enemes were your siblings.
race issues were who ran the fastest.
war was only a card game.
the only drug you knew was cough medicine.
the only time he would tell you he didnt want to see you was when you were playing hide n seek.
the only things that hurt you were skinned knees, and goodbyes were untill tomorrow?
and to think.. we wanted to grow up!
i myself am guilty of feeling these things. i remember being little and couldnt wait to work, be in highschool, and start my own family. but man. within the last 10 years its gone from that, to this:
high now means, smoking pot just to have a better time.
you can get aids, pregnant, stds and even worse, a broken heart from boys.
depending on your family, dads shoulders are now not high anymore. the highest place is where ever you put yourself. and yes, moms are still the hero<3
siblings go from the worst enemes to some of your best friends.
people will judge you up and down because of what you are, how you look and how you were raised.
war is something we grow up with now. its second nature.
cough medicine is now no biggie. you have to watch out for the drugs that people give you you dont know about! like at parties.
guys break hearts. the worst thing to be heared, is i dont want to see you anymore.
goodbyes and see you laters are 500 times harder now. you know you wont see them everyday, you have to wait for holidays.
now, we wanna grow back down.
life, you need to take it step by step and be strong.
