Grow up in the chase of adulthood,
Grow into it, emulate what you want to become and accept yourself,
Grow further, sprout, rooted you
Grow back, it's fine, you did so well last season.
Grow up, you tell yourself,
Grow sideways, at least
Grow past that leash.
Grow to the point where any doubt dissipates.
You're beautiful, all by yourself, I just gotta remind you someday.
