The End

As I reflect on that last moment, I couldn't help but feel like it was the end of an era. A time where I was carefree and didn't have the weight of the world on my shoulders. It's almost as if the world shifted, and I was thrust into a new reality where I had to face the harsh truth that I was growing up, and with that came a new set of responsibilities.

It's been challenging to accept that I don't have a choice but to think about the future. The future, once filled with excitement and endless possibilities, now feels like a daunting task. The thought of becoming an adult, a woman, is both exciting and terrifying. I can't help but feel like I'm not ready, like there's still so much more that I need to learn.

It's unfair how much I had to battle when I was young. It feels like I lost my youth in the process. Growing up in this world has been an eye-opening experience. Looking back, it's hard to realize how much the world has changed, how different it has become. It seems like with each passing day, there's a new challenge to face, a new obstacle to overcome.

I'm supposed to have a lot of life ahead of me, but it doesn't feel like that. It's hard to explain, but it feels empty, for the most part. I hope that it becomes more full of happiness as I continue on this journey. I know that it won't be easy, but I'm willing to put in the work. Because that's the moment I knew...I wanted to make a change, to create a better future for myself and those around me.
