23
When everything looked fine, but everything changed

Between all the calm, chaos happened.
In all the luxuries, choice happened.
Growing up was easy —
But between all the desires, we became busy.
Money came, it went.
Prayers were made, prayers were sent.
Nobody knew what all this meant.
Life was worth living.
F*cks were worth giving.
We chose to avoid mistakes —
Never knew a lot was at stake.
Suddenly, I am 23.
For the world, I am free —
But never, for me.
I think life just happened.
Something right must have happened.
I am not a kid anymore.
In the calm, chaos must have happened.
About the Creator
Moonchild Writes
"I am a Moonchild – born under silence, raised by chaos.
I speak in pauses, feel in storms, and write in phases.
My words are not loud, but they echo.
Not here to be read—here to be felt."
