Nine me

Time flies really too fast It feels as if yesterday I was nine Nine years olded playing hide and seek Nine years old boy older at marbles Nine where my duties were to eat and sleep How come in a sip I turned nineteen? Feelings of sleepless nights I never had before Scared of how life can treat me for my fouls Responsibilities I've to bear on my shoulders All these make me miss my nines; ndagukumbuye nine me.
