Coming of Age

Driver’s licenses, speeding tickets, life in the fast lane Full of responsibility, difficulty, and the possibility of being a little vain It’s a time of puberty, discovery, and the future A time for many heartbreaks that can only be cured with a suture Sometimes when a mirror is your only friend Right until the bitter end But don’t be scared or hide Because it’s only a matter of time for it all to subside So when you look in the mirror and ask yourself who you see Is it someone you love and in someone you believe?
