​Outgrown or Overgrown

Who am I?

That’s the question

We are touched by the people we let into our lives

Do I let others into mine too easily?

I’m questioning the friends, faces, people I see

Those I choose to overlook flaws

Am I picky or am I outgrowing?

I don’t know if we’re in the same place in our lives

Should I outgrow them

Are they holding me back?

I wonder sometimes

But it’s easy now to point at the damage in others

Rather than facing mine

I do face mine

Or I’m trying

And maybe that’s making me brutal

Standoffish

Cause I’m changing

I’m becoming someone completely different

And maybe we’re just not the same anymore

I once heard that we become the closest people we let into our lives

Honestly I’m not inspired by anyone in my life right now

Maybe that’s a sign

That I’m isolating yet growing

That I should find the people that inspire me

Rather than those I end up judging too easily

Or maybe that’s a flaw

Or something to bring up later
