Adulthood

I don't really know what adult me looks like.

Am I growing in a cocoon or shutting myself out? What image would I even empathize with?

What do I feel as an adult? I can describe childhood feelings so well... Adult feelings are grey goo. Adulthood is more of an idea than reality most of the time. I can't keep up.

Next to others my age, I feel so small. Maybe I just have to build what I can, with what I've got, no matter how small.
