15

There was a time I remember When life felt dreamy, Whose memories now seem fuzzy. How did I realize so soon that life is not Disney? Someone please tell me—when did I turn 15? It feels like yesterday when the people in photo frames were with me. How I wish I could go back and say goodbye happily. There’s not much I can do but survive in this obligated reality. Someone please tell me—when did I turn 15? There was a time when I believed in forever, But now life reminds me that forever can end anytime. How did I get lost in these streets of uncertainty? Someone please tell me—when did I turn 15? Those walls, those gardens, those streets, those halls— They scream nostalgia, they should remind me of my childhood, Of the days when my heart didn’t feel heavy. But for some reason, they stopped meaning anything to me. Someone please tell me—when did I turn 15? Those people who once belonged to me now belong to everyone. Not that it hurts me— It’s just that life feels scary When I sometimes see myself lonely. Someone please tell me—when did I turn 15?
