A Step

A step,
Into a new world.
Grown up too fast,
I will miss you.
Childhood is over.
Womanhood begins.
Leaving home for the first time.
Tears.
Smiles.
Fear.
The distance between us grows
but the love stays the same.
Love never dies,
It just gets better with age.
New freinds.
New jokes.
A new life.
Breaking to another side.
Ties severed.
Ties strengthened.
The past is packed away
Memories grow dusty
But if we think back,
To step back,
it takes
a step.
