Not even 18
She told me to sleep on the streets
“time to be an adult”
Jobs and school are not cool
Dreams and ambitious cannot take flight
But there’s no point in a fight
So I try with all my might
Sleeping on the steps
Working 8 hours shifts
School is a gift
No time to drift
Not even 18
Yet I’ve aged far beyond my years
all in one night.

Life is a little more complicated then this, but whatever..
