In ten years, these steps I fear will be paths I have walked. I have dreams and my fears triple every one of them but someday, probably in yen years, I’ll overcome them to create new ones
In ten years, I would love a partner with the approval of my parents, I will grow more confident and these secondary school teachers will be proud to have mentored me
But today, I have assignments I need to do
I have a love letter to write and my parents must not know that I love a boy
I love how this builds and shifts! That last stanza is so powerful!
