**maturity**maturity***
Unobligated of entourages for serenity and tranquility
Honest smiles complemented of sincerity creating stability
Withdrawals of ignorance generating wisdom and new gentility
Finally the soul moves freely with a novel sense of mobility
I welcome you maturity
Perceptions no longer create deceptions and inner conflicts within
New meanings of comfortablity under one’s own skin
Unengaged in following corporate America’s oblivious trend
Now I befriend a blend of enlightenment in means to amend
I welcome you maturity
Life has more color in wiser eyes
Things become clearer such as honesty and lies
Seeing pass mine and other personas in disguise
I notice and slightly grin as my levels of realization arise
I welcome you maturity
I Thank God for delivering me from obscurity
No confusion I’m not perfect there still lays impurity
A luta continua meaning the struggle continues
However I continue with a new sense of security
I welcome you maturity
Love & peace/ a luta continua
