I'm getting older.
I often struggle to notice.
I'm with myself all the time,
I know myself better than anyone.
My little girl's body ran after wild animals, not caring about if I had to look cool or if I got all sweaty. Now I check my hair before going out and make sure I spray my perfume too many times to hide the smell of sweat or odor.
Growing up isn't something you enjoy
Unless you're, like,
Five,
And the world is still golden,
And you can't see
The hourglass
And the grains of sand
Falling
