I remember when I turned 21
I was like lets go get some
Beer, Margaritas or something

At 21 I was still single and free
This was the life for me
I wanted to see everything
Travel
Do whatever

By the end of my 21st year
I was lonely
And in dispair
Thought I would be alone

This is what my 21st year was like
A emotional rollercoaster of life

Cold hands means a warm heart

(big hugggsssssss) Oh Julie, though I am only 18 and have yet to reach that milestone, I understand that it must be a big step and I hope now you have found all you have desired and am not that lonely anymore! (sigh) This is a powerful introspective poem, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Julie, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Nice poem...full of meaning and truth, Julie.
Most of us go through times like that...you don't have to be 21 to live a roller coaster life...
but its harder at 21, than it is when you're older.
I think that life gets better as we age...
We complain about our wrinkles but I don't think anyone ever wants to go back to being young again.
