The In Between..

The sadness is hard to deal with
When your child gets to that stage
Where she is no longer a girl but not yet a woman
She thinks she knows her way,
But is blinded by freedom and fun
The responsibilities of an adult not yet a thought
Her thoughts only expand to the next situation, never beyond
The days are no purpose, life is young and fresh
Her seeing through eyes that don’t see a future yet
Dreams that are not yet formed or made
Difficulties that she has not come across in life
When the time comes for her to learn life’s lessons
Will she be prepared? Have I given her enough to cope..
Or have I taught her too much.. for wanting such a leap?
Has my little girl really become the woman I want her to be
Or has she stepped into that platform in life of the in between..
Not yet a woman but beyond a child’s circle
Maybe the sadness is stemming from me
Not from this creature I no longer know
I want to hold her tight and keep the world back
But my arms are no longer allowed
Its her turn she says, her life, her plans
Can I deal with letting it be her mistakes too?
The sadness is hard to deal with
When your child gets to that stage
