Growing Up.
When do boys become men?
When they learn not to hurt us;
When they learn how fragile our hearts are;
When they are afraid to push us too far;
When they won’t even wrestle with us because we might get a bruise;
When they really truly love us;
When they leave a piece of them with us;
When their heart is ours;
And when they will never truly care about anyone else.
When do girls become women?
When they realize when boys become men;
When they figure out that they pushed away the only man they would ever care about;
When they hold on tight to his heart and never let go;
When they give a piece of themselves to them;
And when they realize that they can never ever care about anyone the same way.
