Running away from adulthood, <br />Being chased by points of authority, <br />Not understanding, <br />Still seeing and hearing to much for innocent eyes, <br />Running away from adulthood, <br />Being rushed, being pushed into adulthood, <br />I dont feel ready, <br />Being chased by points of authority, <br />I dont know what I'm thinking, <br />I have no plan, <br />No organisation, <br />No hope, <br />Im just running away from adulthood, <br />Doing anything to push back the moment when, <br />I have to grow up, <br />I dont feel ready, <br />Being watched by over observant eyes, <br />Waiting for my ultimate slip up, <br />The slip that will give reality leave to, <br />Kick me in the teeth, <br />Nothing has changed, <br />I falter, <br />I fall, <br />As you can see, <br />Nothings changed at all, <br />I run from adulthood, <br />i get chased by points of authority, <br />Getting rushed, getting pushed into adulthood, <br />Being forced to 'grow up! ' <br />Im not ready, <br />I dont want to take this step, <br />Its much to big, <br />And yet, <br />When i am being over parented, <br />Trapped by points of authority, <br />Trapped in situations that i cant be bothered with, <br />I welcome adulthood with open arms, <br />But im still not ready.<br /><br />Laura Cummings<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/running/
