Eager To Be Grown

Eager to be grown but the reality of it was unknown 
To me in my mind just wanting to be free not knowing that being grown is so cut throat stand up go for it and don’t choke and if you don’t go for what you seek you could lose everything you need and every adult gain comes at a cost

       Unknown is the cost of be an adult to a child that just wants freedom and the right to chose not knowing what’s at stake there is also much to gain enjoy your childhood and don’t rush it away

Good advice, but too many don't get a childhood, it's stolen from them by abusers.

You are right, what happens to us as a child, effect us in adulthood..
