You grew with limitations and restrictions,
That's just how it goes
It helps modify and regulate the world
There is no other way i suppose
Your youth shines so bright,
so much potential you possess
so many doors and keys
you can't help it, so you just make a guess
But then comes the word,
the word everyone knows,
It is not something you were taught,
it is something that blindly shows
anything can come with a reward you know this,
anything can come with punishments so severe
you were taught this since you were a child,
but you weren't taught the word fear.
It's something that comes with happiness,
it's something that comes with pain,
It's an existing alive emotion
it's something that you cannot refrain
The World does not revolve around you,
Understand we have grown into our own life quiz
we are raised to be selfish....
Just realize.. It is what it is.
Quite a few lines in this
Quite a few lines in this poem describe my own childhood.
