Maturity

Maturity is many things

How you handle what you see
How you choose who to be

     do you holler
          do you shout

or maybe

     you're the kind to pout

There's a kind of maturity
a kind that hasn't strived to be

The kind that starts inside oneself
shows itself

     insecurity
          instability
               inability

Maturity is many things

How you handle what you see
How you choose who to be

There's a kind of maturity
a kind that strives hard to be

The kind that starts inside oneself
shows itself

     caring
          sharing
                understanding

Maturity is many things

It's choosing how you want to be
