Growing Pains

I want to be small again
Small enough
To dream about being tall again
I want to stand on my parents' feet
And rock back and forth again

I want to fall asleep
On two chairs pushed together
Picked up and put into the backseat
Carried out of the car
Into my bed
With the fairy sheets

When I wake up
My sister is there
And my parents
Are downstairs

I've wanted to be small
Since the day I found out I would get old
But the longing's intensified now
On the brink of eighteen and I've never
Felt so young somehow

Too small to know anything
Too big for my childhood bed
If this is what growing pains feel like
I'll stick with being static instead
