Enchanting beauty surrounds Young's eye
Views never seen before now appear
Childhood left with sweet goodbye
Welcome to growth, finally here
Teenage era ended in an instant
Responsible for my own life from now on
Life feels so rapid, so constant
Can't believe 17 years had gone
Staring at the mirror thinking
Still young and pretty as I were
No change in appearance, mind is sinking
On my mirrored reflection I continue to stare
What is this special age reached only now?
Haven't changed in body, keep feeling the same
So how did I change, I must know how
Being 18 can't be just a game
Understanding fully the meaning at last
Changing not in body, but in mind
Changes happened all so fast
Eyes were shut, and mind was almost blind
18 is a special age, end of a phase
No changes of body, stays young and tight
Mind starts wondering in haze
How should I continue my life after tonight?

Although a bit late, this is the poem dedicated to Melanie.
Finally 18 honey, have the best time of your life!
Happy Birthday! :)
