Studying
Cramming
Amidst the scattered papers,
Softly crying
Mood suddenly changing
Remembering
Pausing for a moment
Pencils dropping
Slowly
B r e a t h i n g
Sentiments immediately hitting
Of the days where life used to be simple
Gentle
On how you danced the earth upon your young feet
Not giving a care about tomorrow
The rain falling
Cicadas singing
Oh how you've long for that feeling
Of that fuzzy sensation
Gust of wind, hugging
Yet inside is a tiny heart, bravely beating
It was heartwarming
Hopes and dreams suddenly rushing
Of how you've always wanted to walk along the stars
And conquer the roaring seas
On how you've always wondered
What will you be
Years from now
You stood up, quietly gazing
On a sight which seemed to be out of reach
The mirror was calling
The reflection was changing
A youthful being stared back at you
Grinning
Smiling
Eyes sparkling
Undoubtedly admiring
Yet worrying
Of what you've become
As you close your eyes, realizing
Looking for the fire left inside you
Still scorching
Reassuring
Of that person you've been years ago
That you will continue to fight
And be proud of what you'll ever be
