Age 18



When I was young I was free
There were no worries to see
What I have was carefree me
I had a happy me
All time doing silly things
No responsibilities... No nothing
Adolescence- it hit me one day
With infinite emotions, curiosity all on my way
Harmonal changes started occuring
Guys are seem to be attracting
There comes the wrong turns we take
But there only we learn from our mistake
Now comes number of distraction
Also pressure of scoring good marks in addition
No one is aware about my stress and me
That how these career choices confusing me
One side is me dreaming about bright future
Other side is same me scared about my future
Whether pursuing this would be a regret
Or it is going to be great
18,comes with transition from youth to adult
It comes with expectations of parents from me
And me expecting that now I would be free
Ending this up saying,
I am enjoying last few days of my teen
Excited to be an adult as I am turning freaking 18(eighteen)
