Welcome Me, Adulthood
Welcome me, Adulthood, I have venturedthrough childhood with all the wonders and dangers in it.
I have placed my childhood fantasies aside,and picked up hopes of becoming who I want to be.
Embrace me knowledge, I am ready to know more and add to what I know already.I have conquered my fear of the night,now I only fear of becoming nothing.I have stopped pretending to be what I thought I was going to be,and realized that I am only what I make of myself.
I have come down from the land of make-believe,and I have found the strength to believe in me.So when I come upon you, open your arms,and welcome me, Adulthood,for I am headed your way.
