We Were Not Small or Great but Grown |
I have not done in my five years what you did in yours |
Your twenty-two versus my twenty-nine |
I know it does no good comparing lives |
But I am such a slow, slow learner |
And at times, not at all |
Should I stop writing now? |
I could give me life to better things |
A house, a steady job, a family |
Still, I am not sure if I can see myself like that yet |
And I am so afraid I never will |
