Growing Pains

Can you see me,

When I walk in the room?

Do you still want me,

I need to know for sure.

When you see me,

Do you pull a shield?

Or when you see me,

Do you get a feeling of happiness?

Do you want me,

To just say goodbye?

I’m getting older now,

See me,

I’m growing.

I hope you can accept me.

Because without you,

I’m just not sure,

If I would be who I am now.

So take me,

Accept me.

I don’t want to go away.
