Grow

I watched you sink down to where mankind has not explored
I’ve seen you float above the waves like you weren’t even trying
Things might get better for you but it won’t be anytime soon
We all grow older and learn to deal with what we do

I saw you held so high on hands perfectly clean
And when they dropped you, your shoe print would never leave
You may have deserved it all but not nearly that bad
We all grow older and learn to lose what we had

I came to terms with how you became what you are
I never held you but I felt you come apart
You may have needed them but they didn’t need you
We all grow older and learn to live with what we choose
