'Hi.'
Hi?!
A ****** HI IS WHAT YOU GIVE ME?
The gains, the drops, the climb; struggle.
How can this calamity be my reality?
Pour me into a cup,
Drink me like liquor
Let the world smell me on your breath
Let them feel my mark
Breathe me and and swallow me whole
Lost inside your soul..
But NO
You aren't good for me, not one bit
This itch, it's just an itch
Fight it, will it to shrink and wither
Let it timber
Drown no longer with your white whale
Abandon ship; don't---------fail.

You know you’re grown
When your monsters change
They don’t lurk in closets
And hide underneath beds
Now they stand in the hallways
Bunched up, whispering
Now, they point and gossip
Spreading rumors
You’re not afraid to walk
Upstairs at your grandma’s anymore
You’re not afraid to turn off the lights
Instead, you’re afraid of the rush
to get to the classroom
You’re afraid to go to lunch
You’re afraid to talk to them
So, how you know
When you’re grown
Is when your monsters change
