Growth

I believe I have grown.

What, or where, or when, I cannot say, but I feel I have grown

My patience is much shorter, my kindness more small

My gullibility has shrunk with it

I do not grieve my change, I celebrate it

I may have grown out of friends, clothes, groups and cliques

But I grew into me
