On My Own

When I was young, I thought I knew

everything.

My parents, always telling me what

to do and who I could talk too.

They never seem to know, who I really

was.

Or at least that is what I use to think,

before I began on my own.

So many times, I dreamed of going back

in time, to a child that was cuddled and

loved.

But as I grew, so did they, and the hugging

did cease, not as much as it use to be.

Did I grow away from them, or the old

saying "Let them go".

If I could turn back time, if I could make

you smile once more, before I turn and

walk away. I would gladly do so, as my

heart is still with you.

Even though I've grown, do not push me

away. For I am still your child.

And this child still needs your love and

caring ways.

Please do not close the door on me.
