Us

Today we start another day together.
Hpw are we going to spend it?
Are you going to smother me, hover over me, control me?
Are you going to let me have some freedom?
I need to be me, whomever that might be.
Not what you want me to be.
Things change, situations change, life changes.
God saw fit to let me live, now you have to.
Let'd break from these changes and start another day together.
