Mature Poem by leanne guyton

These feelings I have pushed aside,
I am no longer allowing you a free ride,
If with me you want to stay,
It is now you must start paying your way,
you need to grow up and get real,
see how you make me feel,
for years I have stood by you strong,
not any more,
the way you are is wrong,
I have been here through it all,
helped you stand tall,
pulled you up when you take a fall,
I am sorry my love you must now stand alone,
when you mature you may return home,
I am hoping you find the right path soon,
so together again we can blossom and bloom.
