Grown Up

Summers day Waking up to find everything is new to me. Walking in the streets for the first time having a different view The start of a new day means nothing to me Same office to go to Same work to do The sun don’t matter The news stresses me out Her hair is straight mines not The hell with him his wife’s dating the boss Accounts, accounts, accounts. My house is bigger than theirs I pay more on my car than on my house Diet coke, fruits, provitas, no lunch Long hours…… Meetings, functions, planning. Sleepless nights… Endless conversations, gossiping, fights. Acting like kids but here we all have equal rights. Stiletto’s, silky shirts, suits and ties. This is my new life I’m one of them now
