Leaving

Each day we face many trials Did we make a good choice today, For if we didn't we'll soon know The cost is high that we will pay. As children we only watch adults Thats the way we all learn, Our parents try their best to guide us Although they are at times to stern. They often say just you wait Someday as adults you'll see, But sometimes it them who forget We are adults, they must let us be. Every bird must learn to fly Each child will move away, They must live life on their own Learn from their mistakes each day. Can't hold us back forever Nor make us feel guilty to leave, Its now our life and own choice It is ourself that we must please.
