Eighteen

I am turning 18 soon and I figured I would write a poem about how I think being 18 would feel like.



Turning eighteen isn't just another age,
It's like leaving the child life behind.
Starting a brand new page,
and developing an adult mind.

This new life can be exhilirating
Or discouraging.
This new life is full of waiting
And your soul begins aging.

The age where we start taking chances.
Making the right choices.
You start handling your finances,
Getting rid of negative voices.

Forgetting the past mistakes,
Giving the future a try.
Doing whatever it takes,
Even if the adult life makes you want to cry.

Waiting Here For You

When you finally think you reached the end of a journey, and then it's like SIKE! Sucks doesn't it?

But maybe God doesn't want you to reach the end yet, he has better and even bigger plans for you, Believe and trust in him.

I thought I was finally here,

But I was nowhere near.

Where is the end?

My soul is longing to mend.

I don't want to wait anymore,

Waiting is such a bore.

But everything has its perfect time.

To reach further, we have to climb.

I am prone to worry,

and my eyes are blurry.

I want things to be different,

I want it this instant.

But God I trust in your promises today.

I know you won't let me go astray.

I know God has plans for me,

and I can't wait to see.
