20🥂
There'll come a moment when you realize you're 20 when yesterday you were just 10 And you wouldn't be able to tell how a decade passed away And your life gets divided into befores and afters. The fury of teenage-hood will subdue and nothing will really change but everything will feel so different when you look at old photographs and blurry videos taken on cheap mobile phones. Scents will remind you of childhood and certain friends you don't talk to anymore. Things you said: "I'd never do" are mistakes you make everyday. Echoes of teenage dreams unwind Memories flicker like candlelight Stepping into the dawn of the end of two decades. It's the end yet the beginning Enjoy every bit of the good days And on the bad days, I hope you remember to breathe, pray and let go of the knot in your chest. I hope you remember to live a little despite it all cuz tomorrow is 30 and the day after that 40. Each passing year feels like a silent farewell to the innocence of youth Leaving behind a trail of bittersweet longings for the days when life seemed simpler. Cheers to getting older🥂
