What's my age again?

The future for them is far past for me,
Creating distance between 'normality' and my existance.
They never understood at a young age naivety was partially forced out of a young girl facing their problems before they had to.
Going out of their way to increase the complexity of my life to satisfy their own imperfections.
I laugh at them now, as they struggle to accept their own realities,
As they face up to the pain that they could not foresee.
I grew up way to fast and speeded through my pain,
But sometimes I have to ask myself,
What's my age again?
