Running round having fun,
Smiling laughing in the sun,
Playing games, tag your it,
Accidents in the sand pit,
Girls chase boys, kiss chase,
Giggling and falling on your face,
Cooties rule the playground,
Can't touch you, not allowed,
Growing up day by day,
Learning more about loves ways,
Pull hair, push them to the floor,
Pretend it's hate but wanting more,
Not obsessed with your beauty,
Happy when you're messy,
Blushing when in their sights,
In heaven during fun play fights,
Starting to care about clothes,
Wanting to catch their eye the most,
Growing up day by day,
Learning more about loves ways,
Seeing their short skirts,
Inside your body is going berserk,
Bus rides, above the wheel,
Warned events begin to be real,
Your body grows, more ways than up,
Working your way from cup to cup,
Your body starts sprouting hairs,
Both upstairs and downstairs,
Growing up day by day,
Learning more about loves ways,
Nervous each night,
Turning out the light,
Waking up, feeling wet,
Yet you haven't wet the bed,
Going to school like normal each day,
Suddenly sharp pains come your way,
Not only have you had to shave,
Now you're riding the crimson wave,
Growing up day by day,
Learning more about loves ways,
Lie in bed, covers wrapped tight,
Beginning to explore yourself that night,
Unsure of what happened then things become clear,
You realise what just happened here,
Growing close to a friend,
Kissing in the end,
You become a budding romance,
Become now woman and man,
Growing up day by day,
Learning more about loves ways,
Wanting to explore each other,
They evolve from partner to lover,
Using your hands, taking it slow,
More and more your urge does grow,
Falling in love, the time is right,
To take it to the next level tonight,
Awkward but sweet, unsure what to do,
Finally you realise, you're no longer two,
Growing up day by day,
Learning more about loves ways,
Emotions at the peak,
The bond is strong yet you feel weak,
Arguments... so dumb,
And you begin to become numb,
Tears fall, pain cuts deep,
But in each others hearts you always keep,
Maturing from children to adults,
While you grow stronger your heart melts,
Growing up day by day,
Learning more about loves ways,
Finding a balance between happy and sad,
No longer lashing out when you are mad,
Talking things through become complete,
Finally a couple others admire when they see,
Boy or girl, we grow up,
Feelings we go through, lust and love,
Boy or girl, each the same,
Both get hurt, both feel pain,
Growing up is hard to do,
Learning about love was made easier by you.
"Love is hard, I know. I've experienced so many pains. Not all but many. And I know there are many more to come. But I wouldn't have experienced the down or the ups without the man I very much love. He is my world, my life, my lover and one of my very best friends. And being with him and feeling the happiness I feel with him makes all the pain and hurt in the past worth it. Don't give up on love when times get tough. When you get through the other side... you realise everything was worth it. Good luck with all of you in your relationships. I hope you all find love. xxx love always xxx"
