Keeping Up

Running with the big kids
Following their tracks
Racing to keep up
But lagging further behind

Left alone as they run, laughing
Caught in their moment
Panting for breath
While watching them go

Not quite good enough
To be part of the group
Trying to be cool
Though they’ll never notice

Scared to miss out
On what they experience
Forget who you are
Just to fit in

Jumping around
Begging to be picked
For a terrible game
You don’t like anyway

But they just keep going
And you’re left in their wake
Left with a life
That you never could own
