Im 15 now.


Im 15 now

But it doesn't feel like it.

Im considered pretty now 

But it doesn't feel like it.

I'm smart now, I have my own valuable opinions

But it doesn't feel like it.

Im supposed to know what i want to do with my life

But i don't know 

I'm constantly know by the soliloquies i preach

But that is not who I am

I don't know who i am 

The realization hits me 

I don't know who i am

Don't 

Know 

Who 

I

Am. 

Am I a pretty girl? 

Am I a smart one?

Am I kind or a good one?

Dont

Know

Who 

Am

I don't know what i want to do

Do I want to sing?

No, be sensible. 

Do I want to heal?

I'm not smart enough.

I don't know what i'm supposed to do with my life 

But I'm 15 now. 

I don't have to know who I am.

I'm 15 now.
