Change - Reverse

Change - reverse*

I am confused
because
I am scared,
and growing up
is changing,
the world.
Somehow
I will be
who I want to be.
Someday
I will find
the love of my life.
Until then
I am young
Growing old.

* the Reverse

Growing old.
I am young
Until then.
The love of my life
I will find
someday.
Who I want to be,
I will be
somehow.
The world
is changing,
and growing up.
I am scared
because
I am confused.
