Birthday Letters
So this is it. This is when I shall sit down and look back on the good times and the trials which I have undergone in the past year, when I shall say that I am glad for all that I had experienced, for all it's worth; whatever the outcome. This is when I compare myself to the person I was a year ago; and frankly I do not see much difference but I know there is many.
When I turned eleven, the world opened up, somewhat almost suddenly; the bright lights just spread far and ahead into the asymptotes of the mind. I gawked and stared.
At twelve, I knew exuberance and energy to be something more. I hungered and learnt.
At thirteen, I had felt angst, the confusion and the sheer decadence of it all. I questioned.
And at fourteen, I learnt how to cope; I accepted my faults; tried to make peace. I grew to understand.
And now I hope.
Fifteen. I am in the want of something pure so much, so much more.
If God willing, then steadfast I shall be.
