Been staring down this path for so long <br />Never thought that growing up could feel so wrong <br />and I didn't even see <br />That this is what you need from me <br /> <br />So I may scream and I may cry <br />But baby just try to understand <br />This was nothing how I planned <br />but I'm doing this for you <br /> <br />So much time I've wasted before you came <br />And every story of love I've told is all the same <br />Except for the one about me and you <br />Maybe because this is the only one that's been true <br /> <br />Been staring down this path for so long <br />Never thought about walking down it for good <br />but I always knew that I would, just not now <br />but I'm doing this for you <br /> <br />So I may fight and I may hurt <br />But it's only worth what it's worth <br />and baby you're worth it to me <br />Because you're the only thing I see <br /> <br />When I close my eyes because I'm afraid <br />For all that time I wish you would've stayed <br />Never thought it would be time to grow <br />I just hope you know <br />I'm doing this for you<br /><br />Moth Harris<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/time-to-grow-up-3/
