Growing up

Why do people judge me for my past.
Can't you see I'm not that same girl I use to be.
Sure I've made some mistakes but so have you.
I'm more mature and a whole lot smarter.
You think my past is a nightmare that you all can haunt me with.
You think you can use it against me,
but no longer will my past haunt me all it is,
is a fading memory. I'm changing can't you see it?
I'm growing up. Don't look away because
In a blink of an eye I was brought into this world
and in a blink of an eye I can be taken out of this world.
