I Don't Wanna Grow Up

Moumita Dutta posted under Poetry on 2022-08-21



I don't wanna grow up But stay grounded like a shrub Defying the rusted norms, I'll live life on my own terms And not be a part of social hubbub. If growing up means learning to snub Joining the discrimination club Only to follow the stale reforms Then, I don't wanna grow up. When maturing means failing to disrupt The system and practices corrupt, Compromising to get along with the swarms Just to stay safe in the manmade storms Assuring the world that I ain't no scrub Then, I don't wanna grow up.    Penmancy gets a small share of every purchase you make through these links, and every little helps us continue bringing you the reads you love!
