I Have Grown


I am from Texas, Born and raised For 5 years. I am from Utah, Raised there for The next 3. I am from California, Been growing here For nearly 7 years. I have grown from Different things More then where I have lived though. I have grown From bullying. From constantly Being told, Written, And yelled at Every little thing That is wrong with me. I have grown from music. From that One Accepting thing Who never tells me What is wrong. Who's soft ukulele strums And awakening trumpet tunes Have been the only Thing capable Of calming my Shaky breath. I have grown from My friendships Whether successful Or not I have grown. I have grown And yet, There is still Much more to Fix, Much more to Learn, Much more to Find. But I have grown. I have fallen down And gotten back up again, Countless times. That is was I Am most proud of.
