Growing Pains

No one will tell you about the limit
They put on how long you can grieve
No one will warn you when you're winning
How heavy a loss love can be.

They do not tell you about the friendships
You'll lose once the lights are dimmed down
How humble you'll feel about your past bliss
Once the tables are turned around.

But I wanna tell you I got through
The hardest of times on my own
I made some mistakes I made a few
But I've learned that I am strong
And.

Just because it hurts
Doesn't mean it isn't worth is
And even if it stings
It is a temporary thing
I'm not saying that changing
Won't cost you love won't make you cry
But it will all make sense…
When the growing pains subside.

Nothing can shield you from the silence
Nights spent on his side of the bed
Praying for help to please stop crying
My life just got turned on its head.

They fail to explain how complex love is
Like why I mostly miss him as a friend
Or how big of a blow, it was for my ego
That she might be better for him.

But I wanna tell you I got through
The hardest of times on my own
I made some mistakes I made a few
But I learned that I am strong.
