The Loss


I am growing.   
I am growing.   

I am learning                
                      new things.
                           
                                        I am learning.                           
                                        I am learning.   

I am acquiring                 
                    new skills.                 
                   
                    Oh, the new skills                                   
                                                 I am acquiring.   

And I am exploding            
                exploding with talents.
                                   
                                                    Just exploding.                                    
                                                    Just exploding.   

And am exploring                   
                             new dimensions.
                                  
                                                        I am exploring.                                  
                                                        I am exploring.   

And quickly,       
       quickly,               
                    I am grasping,                    
                            totally grasping                            
                                       what the fuss of life                                                 
                                                                       is all about.   

And I am blooming,            
                virtually blooming,                               
                                              with insolence.                               
                                              As I find myself losing                                                
                                                                         losing                                                      
                                                                           my innocence.   

So now, I am wondering.   
Yes, now I am wondering.
                           
                                          Can anything,                                
                                                  anything at all,                                        
                                                              compensate me                                                   
                                                                        for such a loss.
