"birthday"

These Keys just don't seem to turn so easy...
Doors that opened up are all closed for me...
Pathways that led me to a special place aren't 
so straight anymore...
When life seemed so easy to ride we find ourselves
in a tougher place thats  not so kind....
Gather our feet and without panic search our minds
for the proper road..
Don't be afraid to take a friends hand in mine so 
we both can carry the load..
Its another year that has passed and we've entered
another way..
Although the calender say its only april, I know I've
grown because soon its once again my bithday..

What a great write about growing older & growing up. Life might not seem as easy anymore, but you've got experiences under your belt that make it more interesting :) Happy Birthday, my wise friend!
