Just a Number?

Age is a number,
thats what they say.
But to me,
age is a restriction.
It holds me back.
Pulls me down.
You are too young, they say.
And I fight it.
You are too old, they say.
And I fight it.
I fight my age.
But age is just a number,
Thats what they say.
A number, a restriction, a fight I cannot win.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Turning 16 in exactly a week. Still too young. Still too old.
