Twenty Two
Updated: Apr 30, 2020
Turning twenty two, A girl can forget everything she once knew,
A birthday comes just once a year
Some people revel in it,
Whilst others hide it.
The day you celebrate
You also mourn for the girl you once were
As you realise you are not her anymore
You may shed a tear
As you say goodbye to yet another year
A year filled with heartbreak, love, friendship
Life changing lessons
Perhaps it was a year
Where something truly amazing happened
After twenty one years
You realised your worth on this earth and put it into action
So take a second to shed a tear
To raise a glass
Because twenty one was really quite class
Then look ahead because you never know twenty two could be your year.
