Truthfully

You will come to the realization at some point,
That things aren't quite like,
The way the imagined they would be,
When you reached this height,

Of age, but not stature, and that's the reason,
So many stories cover,
The lives of people who haven't quite made it,
And consider their chances over,

But all that means is they don't believe,
Their own interpretation of reality,
And need ro be honest with their self,
And ignore what others are thinking.

And it's alright,
And much easier to say all these things,
Than to do them, and again that's just a guage,
Of the truth with which you are living.
