Life

Life seems to be rushing by me
Going so fast that everything is a blur
Time used to go so slow when I was younger
I used to sit and enjoy the day
But I got so consumed in growing up,
Acting older, and not being a kid
That now I cant even remember what I did
When I was younger I didnt worry about making something of myself
I just did what I wanted..
No worries
But now I wish I would have gave it a second thought
Its almost time to grow up
And I find myself wanting to be little again
Wishing I could go back the old days
When I didnt have to worry about anything.
Or better yet,
Go back to the old days
Maybe put a little more thought into what I was going to do with my life
Do a little better in school.
Be a kid
But still know that I cant always be a kid
I guess I never really realized that
You do grow up,
but its not all fun and games.
You have responsibility
There isnt always going to be someone there to take care of you
Give you money and such
Put a roof over your head
You have to do that on your own
And it all starts young
I mean you at least have to know that one day you will be responsible for your own actions
and me, well I did know that but didnt care
I just lived carelessly.
And now I am paying for it.
Now I sit around and wonder
What the hell am I going to do with my life
How am I going to make a difference in the world
I mean I want to make something of myself.
I want to be remembered as someone who helped people
Not someone who did nothing with there life,
in a dead end job, and a dead end life.
