You say that I'm changing,
but I'm really just growing up.
I'm not that same little girl
who used to dream these impossible dreams
and think the world of you.
I see now that it was all a farce.
The world is not
some perfect place where
everyone cares and nothing hurts.
People lie and forget promises they
swore they'd never break.
I know that now
and it's killing me, but I have to accept it.
You should too.
