I am...


I am….

 

A girl from a broken home,

Who was never alone,

A girl who loves the stars,

Who could watch them all night long,

A girl with a short childhood,

Who was always younger than she looked,

A girl who rock climbs,

Who loves the heights,

 

 

I am….

 

A girl who is afraid of being left behind,

Who stands up to fight,

A girl who never backs down,

Who is stubborn and holds her ground,

A girl who reads a lot,

Who gets lost in her own thoughts,

 

A girl who is unique,

Who will always be me,

 

I am….
