Growing
As a child i never understood why i had the name i did
i never understood why i was short and chubby
i never undertood why i wasn't like the other preppy girls at my school
Then i was in middle school
i thought i was a freak
i was bullied
i never felt as if i belonged to the cliques that stalked the halls
i was who i was
And that wasn't good enough at the time
Then came high school- a new school- an arts school
Life got better
Happier
I had real friends
I was weird and I was okay with that
Becoming me took awhile and I am still learning
But "I" am no longer "i"
I am me and that's exactly how it should be
Always
