The Golden Age
April 21, 2019
In the midst of being 17
I am reminded of the wall between
adolescence and adulthood
Is it truly time to grow up?
or is it okay to still keep my childish antics?
Should I work for fashion magazines?
Maybe become a painter?
I could be a dancer,
Or I can work for theatre!
Is it okay to have a never-ending string of dreams and hopes at this age?
Despite all the internal conflict of being 17,
I will forever be in love with this age
In the midst of being 17
I have learned that I can eventually be anything I want to be
I can work for fashion magazines,
I can be a painter
I can become a dancer
I can work for theatre
And along the way,
Dang!
I can even become a chiropractor
