Hand in the paper

Life is like an invisible exam. Watching the people around me hand in their papers one after another and get on the set track, I myself am still lingering at the starting point and have yet to put pen to paper.

17 years old

I thought love was an instant reply message

It's the chat records of good morning, good night and late at night

Eighteen years old

I am full of expectations for the future and romance

I don't need you to be rich or capable

Because I believe that love is greater than everything

19 years old

I'm going to start planning for the future

But I don't understand

Why is love an endless quarrel

And repeating the same mistakes again and again

Twenty years old

I began to doubt human nature

So love can be feigned

21 years old

There is someone around you who you love but can't have

Some people repeat the same mistakes.

People around me have also been submitting their papers one after another

22 years old

I met the person I like

But still shook head and said, "Let's be friends."

    "A timeline of heartbreak, hope, and hard truths, growing up has never sounded so beautifully bittersweet."
