92. 24

24, we have beautiful memories
that now, just remain as hidden stories
24 taught me many things.
24 taught me,
Loving is not loving
But giving
True happiness is not external
But within; we're all in this together but alone.
24 you've slowly grown on me
From dislike to denial
Today I love myself
I can still be a kid, but grown up
I can fearlessly drink
But everything shall be linked to my age
I will be asked to calm down,
And slowly extinguish this rage.
Time is running too fast
Many things I thought would
But didn't last
It is okay to be pained
It is okay to fall low
But remind myself
In lieu, I have also gained
24 you have come too soon
I'm still on the floor,
But now there's a change in the tune,
I was dancing to hip-hop
You want me to maintain​ my poise
And I fear slowly you'd ask me to stop
24's taught me to value
24's compelled me to count my money
now I'm independently dependent
Fearful of your next question
Fearful about life,
You want me, to take this tension.
24, you're asking​ me,
What have I still achieved
But sorry, I'm counting my blessings
Enough have I received
24 you're also like this society
Just a number limiting my horizon
At the same time afraid,
Above you have I risen
