That Glow-Up
That Glow Up by Domonique Shannon (12)
From those pig tails to braids
All those hairstyles you slayed
You relized you’ve grown up
Not only grown up but you had a glow up
It didn’t come easy
You had to face some difficult times
Things you had to make up in your mind
From that first heartbreak
To stuffing your face with cake
Your friends tell you is ok
When you know you’ll be alright
But it still feels like crap at the end of the day
You can take advantage of that moment
and grow from it
You’ll bounce back so quick
Throw him in a bag and that will be it
Just one faze in your life that you go through
No counting the stress
You’ll get from test
Oh, you’ll know your blessed
When you walk across that stage
Say good-bye to waking up early
And say hello to…
Wait guess what’s next
College
Oh well at least you know you had that glow up
