Young And Stressing Poem by Randy McClave

She is 19 & stressing
About her future she was pressing,
About the day after tomorrow
Will it bring her happiness or sorrow.
She is now an adult
Maturing from childhood is the result,
Now she has her life by the reins
Will she be moving forward or crossing lanes.
Will she remember the advice her mother gave
On how unto no one to ever be a slave,
And how her life is hers alone to live
And how she always should help and give.
Her new life is about to begin
As the world gives her a smirk and a grin,
She must now grab the bull by the horn
With responsibility and a destiny she is born.
She is afraid of mistakes that she will make
And wrong advice that she will take,
If She is scared to fail
Then, she will never prevail.
