"20 Is That You.?!"
  by Charly Baltimore


No..
This Can't Be Happening.
Are You Serious?
..Already?!

Man, What Happen to The Years?
Oh, If Only They Were Steady.
--
Now I Laugh
Because I Wished,
And Now My Wish
..Is Coming True.

It Doesn't Matter if I'm Ready,
There is Nothing I Can Do.
--
See As a Teen
I Taste the Venom..
My Persona
is Obscure,

That's My Time to be a Rebel,
So at Times I'm Immature.
--
Now I Sit Back
and I Wonder
..Am I Near The Life I Claimed?

Have I Worked to My Advantage?
Is There Meaning to My Name?
--
I Made a Swear
At Thirteen,
Vowed to Never
Part My Legs,

Swore to Never Fall in Love
Until I Reached a Certain Age.
--
As of Now That Age Approaches
So My Past it Must Descend.
I Accept This New Position
As a Woman

..I BEGIN
