Growth



In the halls of youth, where dreams take flight,
We navigate the path, seeking our own light.
From high school's embrace, we start to roam,
Venturing forth, finding our own home.

With trepidation and excitement, we embark,
On a journey of self-discovery, leaving our mark.
Lessons learned, friendships made,
As we navigate the transition, unafraid.

The walls of academia begin to fade,
As we step into a world, newly made.
Challenges arise, tests of our will,
But with resilience, we rise and fulfill.

Self-growth blooms, like a flower in spring,
Unveiling strengths we didn't know we bring.
Discovering passions, shaping our fate,
Embracing adulthood, with courage innate.

We stumble, we falter, but we learn,
From each setback, a lesson earned.
With every step, we shed our youth,
Blossoming into a version, strong and uncouth.

The world awaits, with open arms,
As we embrace adulthood's charms.
With newfound wisdom, we take flight,
Guided by dreams, shining so bright.

So let us embrace this transition's call,
Embracing self-growth, standing tall.
From high school to adulthood, we evolve,
A journey of transformation, our problems we'll solve.
