In four years
I will be grown
I will no longer be a little kid
Sitting in my father's truck
A ford from 77
That he sold that when I turned thirteen
Even though he promised it to me
In four years
I won't live in the house
My parents bought when I was six
I won't drive through the hill country
With my parents
And I'll wonder to myself where the time went
In four years
I'll look back on these days
Like fond memories of the past
But currently they are moments
But with each second
They pass
So slowly they go by
And now I think to myself
Along with everyone else
Why does the time go by this fast
Grown Up

Regret
You asked me to stay
As you gazed into the future
Longing once more -
I am not
I am not a poet
I don’t know how to use my words the way they can
I can’t captivate the minds of my friends by stringing them along with the simplest of words
I am not a musician -
Limelight
I stood in the crowd
My feet cemented to the ground
Just basking in the light of something that would slowly fade
I could hear the high pitched ringing
A reminder of a past days sacrifice
