Time to Mature

Time to Mature

A Poem by Friday Junior
"

We are all getting older, so try to understand...

"
Tell me a tale
About avoiding failure
For I am afraid of it
Like a forgotten savior
As it could happen to me
I would rather be free
So let nature sing it's own prideful song
And only the lonely will sing along...

Some of us have matured 
While others fight and kill
It's absurd
It's time to grow up, my children
It's time to mature, my chosen
It's time for reasoning and intellect
Is this a notion of ignorance, I detect?

Tell me a story
Of some future glory
As I sleep with my pillow
Tucked away
As I say to you, I am sorry
Like a million times already
I have no more to say
On this my final day
Of blood and broken bones
For the love of my lady...

Some of us have matured 
While others fight and kill
It's absurd
It's time to grow up, my children
It's time to mature, my chosen
It's time for reasoning and intellect
Is this a notion of ignorance, I detect?
