"This Place"

by Lenee

Written 9/30/99


A place full of fun,
with so much to see, do, and explore
as a bright, wide-eyed child.

Full of promises,
and so many opportunities
to me way back then.

But oh, how things change,
even though I may not want them to.
Reality set in.

I've outgrown this place.
I need more than it has to offer.
It's time to move on now.

I'll never forget,
nor ever stop loving its beauty,
for it's part of me.

It's where I grew up,
and where I became who I am now.
It will always be "home".

Though I'm moving on,
everything that is "this place" will be
in my heart forever.
