Youth

I am only part of me,
A glimpse of what I'll truly be,
A fraction of the iceberg out for everyone to see
For I am hiding deep in the ocean
The most lovely things you've ever seen

This moment is so very small
It hardly affects me at all
And yet the rest of my life is rebounding off this wall
Oh can you feel it coursing through my veins
Time in all it's glory changes me

Tucked away in safer spaces
Far from unfamiliar faces
I unfold what I will be in quiet empty places
So I can marvel at all the promise
Hope for everything, my life's ahead of me
