Can I go to a party where no one's drunk or high?
Can I go somewhere, where no one is crying over some guy?
Can I go back to my old life?
No, i can't!
It's time to grow up, and face new fears
Overcome obstacles with smiles and tears
While other are drinking and doing dope
I will stand tall, full of hope.

'I will stand tall, full of hope', that's something i want to achieve.
I feel like that every day...growing up is real scary..you're poem captures the want to go back into child hood...really good structure..straight to the point.

Growing up is hard, especally now, but we all must hold on to our morals and, as you say, "stand tall, full of hope". Great poem.

 "We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars." -Oscar Wilde
