At first we were held on to
where ever we went
someone was holding on to me
then one brave day
that person put us down
and we learned
to walk
and talk
and think on our own
but still held onto
but now only by the hand
and constantly watched over
then one brave day
they took there eye off of you
and sent you to school
but they walked you to the bus
and picked you up after school
still always there watching over you
then one brave day
they sent you to middle school
a little further away
and a little bigger
they told you to walk to the bus
all by yourself
all the sudden a little bit of freedom
then one brave day
they send us off
to high school
a whole hour away
a whole lot bigger
and way different
its more freedom
than I've ever had
but will i us it wisely?
or will i ruin my one chance at responsibility?
