There are so many voices, Telling me about their choices, Their words echo in my ear, Only intensifying the future's fear; I'm reaching the top of the mountain called childhood, I'm growing up and life, Begins its own complications; People start nagging me, Through their loud voices, To make my choices; This or that? Go to college or stay at school? Am I really smart or a brainless fool? Oh God, this is so not cool! People urge me to choose, "Darling," they say, "What is there to lose?" Oh God, I don't want to be forced upon! Oh God, the childhood days are really far gone!" There are so many voices, Telling me about my choices, I don't listen to them, Instead, I follow my own voice, In making my life-changing choice...

Choices
There are so many voices, Telling me about their choices, Their words echo in my ear, Only intensifying the future's fear; I'm reaching the top of the mountain called childhood, I'm growing up and life, Begins its own complications; People start nagging me, Through their loud voices, To make my choices; This or that? Go to college or stay at school? Am I really smart or a brainless fool? Oh God, this is so not cool! People urge me to choose, "Darling," they say, "What is there to lose?" Oh God, I don't want to be forced upon! Oh God, the childhood days are really far gone!" There are so many voices, Telling me about my choices, I don't listen to them, Instead, I follow my own voice, In making my life-changing choice...
I wrote this poem three years ago and somehow, I'm still pretty happy with it because I could somehow write what I genuinely felt strongly about and I could somehow put my emotions into words. Hope you like it! :D
