Growing up

Growing up is hard
Its all about
Do they like me?
Is this too expensive?
Is this shirt cute?
Back in grade school things were easy
No failing, no grades, no worries
Now things have changed a lot 
Worries, money, crushes, friends
Now instead of being able to smile and laugh freely
Theres always worries inside bubbling up all day and night
I used to think growing up was fun
But its truly difficult
