dont grow

u didn't notice u didn't notice how u pretended to be asleep in the car just to get ur dad to carry u up to ur room for the last time. u didn't notice how u waited till 5:00pm. just to see ur mom come home from work while she hugged u and spun u around u didn't notice how u hung up those plastic phones and never opened them again. From now on, u have a real one that's not a toy but an addiction. u didn't notice how u forgot about the monster under the bed or in the closet looking in the mirror, seeing its reflection. u didn't notice u didn't notice how u hang around ur friends more often than family u didn't notice how ur siblings ask to hang out, but all u do is just ignore them, leaving them sad and alone. u didn't notice u didn't notice how u scroll or cry for hours laying in ur bed u didn't notice how u buy things you do even need with the money. u dont have u .idn't notice how u faked me. You smiled just to hide the tears away, thinking it would just go away u didn't notice that u will cry to ur mother or dad, hoping wishing for them to stay with u well, knowing they won't u didn't notice that grandparents don't live forever. u didn't you notice, did u? today u are a teenager longing to be a child
