I am young There is a difference between mature and wise But both are rare in a child I am smart There is a different between smart and being able to work things out But both are needed in choices I am tired There is a difference between quiet and accepting But both are always assumed together I am terrified There is a difference between helpful and happy But both are what I pretend to be I am excited There is a difference between fear and joy But both make my heart race

There *Is* a Difference
I am young There is a difference between mature and wise But both are rare in a child I am smart There is a different between smart and being able to work things out But both are needed in choices I am tired There is a difference between quiet and accepting But both are always assumed together I am terrified There is a difference between helpful and happy But both are what I pretend to be I am excited There is a difference between fear and joy But both make my heart race
