Don't let me grow old. Don't allow me to get any older. With age I have realized more about this world. Ive seen more then I've wanted to. I've heard about horrible things and witnessed wonderful things too. I don't want to hear anymore, I want to close up my ears from everything around me. I don't want to see the bad in the world, I don't want to hear about it.
I have noticed that this life is bittersweet. Bad things come after good things, or some people see it the other way around. I think my glass is half empty then half full on somedays, and then other days I should be happy I have a glass to begin with.
Life is like looking at a unpicked rose. A beautiful perfect pink rose, sitting on top of a stem that's filled with thorns. Life is like looking at that rose and wanting it, then going to grasp it and getting pricked. It was beautiful, but it hurt. I wanted the rose to give to my sweetheart, but it took my pain to be able to make someone smile. Then eventually that rose wilted, because nothing stays perfect, we would get sick of it. Nothing is flawless, and people are lying when they say it.
