I grew up way before my time Taking on motherly duties as if these kids are mine Helping Grandma out when papa died Helping Aunties smile when they feel down Talking to uncles every now and then Befriending sisters 'cause Fathers not around But through all my learning they never Taught me how To Be A Teen Someone help me please.....

Being a teen myself who had to grow up too fast, I know kind of what that's like. This was a great write. Thanks for your comment on my piece, it's hard letting go, letting all the hurtful feeling out in the open to the person who hurt you, but I'm ready to do it, and you will be able to too :) Keep writing, Blessings, ~Michaela~
