Up the Staircase

People say I am not a child any more

But not an adult yet

The future is open

But out of my reach

I look to the stars

But all I can see is a staircase in front of me

It’s a long hard climb

But I know it will change me

Will I like the adult I am at the top?

Will the child return that sits at the bottom?

I am not a child any more

But not an adult yet

Hi Brittany

I have been at the top of the staircase for many years, but I never asked myself the questions you are asking.

You clearly have a curious nature which will inevitably help you with your writing.

Keep on asking the questions. As for the staircase, you may never reach the top in this life but the journey is one you should embrace, and write about.

Good wishes

Thank-you, I am very curious as to where the top even is, but getting there is half the fun.smiley
