"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.
