17 Just a Number

Plans never stay the same
They change a lot even though
You dont want them to

Its my birthday tomorrow 
And i was going to
Shop til i drop

But that all changed 
I heard we were doing somewhere else
"We'll celebrate it on sunday"
They said.

Ok. there go my plans.
I am turning 17.

Who cares anyway
Age its just a number.
