How Can I Grow Up If Nobody Taught Me How To?
I can't
Breathe.
Lost
And alone.
I'm almost out
Of school,
But
I'm not
Ready.
Can't drive,
No job,
No money
And I don't know
What to do.
Lost,
So lost.
No one wants to
Guide me,
So I wander
Lost and
Alone.
Won't anyone
Show me
The way.
Doesn't anyone
Care
About me.
Last night
I had a
Panic attack.
It terrified
Me.
I felt so
Scared
And I kept
Twitching.
My breath came too
Fast
And it hurt
My insides in a way
That's hard
To describe.
Doesn't anybody
Care?
Is there anyone
Who
Can help?
Am I
Alone?
Every time
I try
To grow up,
Something gets
In my
Way.
No one
Helps.
I need my
License,
But no one
Cares.
They say they
Do,
But
They don't
I hold
My hands out
Like
A beggar,
But
No one
Stops.
There is no
Charity.
So
I continue
Down this long
And scary
Road
With a
Realization.
I am
Lost
And alone
I will always
Be
Lost and
Alone.
