The End

From start till this very day we’ve changed and grown
We are now at that age where the life we own 
Is at its fragile state
We are so close to the adult life but still not quite there
The peak of the mountain is in our view.
Naive mind understand that This stage is not the easiest to do
The climb is steep and there is hardly any air to breathe
So with each step we take from this day forth is a fight 
Our footing may land us falling with no safety net
Or closer to the peak.
But remember to look around you 
See the lands that Gods hands sculpted 
Before moving forward. 
Don’t rush to the end to only hiss a swearword at the regret
Lead with your heart but remember educate your heart with your mind,
Stay humble and kind, because when we grow up the harshness of this world could leave us bitter and spiritually blind.
It is an end to chapter but only the beginning of the next.
