In each moment,
My racing heart
Seeks to find
Freedom away...
Far away
From this cage
In which my smile
has been trapped.
Yes, trapped.
For into maturity,
I've grown overnight.
My mind,
Once carefree,
Has into
A chest of decisions,
Turned.
When every choice
Leads to yet another
For goals to be realized,
How can that carefree
Smile of innocence
And adolescent mischief
Be mine again?
If only I knew,
I wouldn't ask.
For a question
of a young mind
Almost turned grey
Seeks saving grace.
