Issues

You’re a kid when you ask what’s an ‘issue’,

it is something you look forward to,

primarily an extra story,

to your recent favourite.

Gradually, the meaning deepens,

and darkens.

Much like innocence, maybe.

You live life,

to an extent that you forget about the ‘issue’ you were told.

While gradually developing some of your own.

And that is when it hits,

you’ve grown up.
