worth

it is funny when you realize your true worth.
it's a shame that we're not born with it to grow from birth.
people change you and find a way in you, leaving you enhanced.
those you would see who you would never give a chance.
it is a dangerous thing when people go out on a limb.
just watching people as they attempt to avoid in some sense, a strangling grip.
one can tell if they would give the time of day and not be changed.
running carelessly through what appears to be a maze.
we give in little by little so we can have that one thing we all crave.
but it's no easy task finding out who we are giving what we gave.
the individual we become in periods of five to ten yrs.
changing before eyes unable to be seen without time turning it's gears.
looking back, checking on whom we've grown from.
finding self's true worth in our own unique zones.
