Progression of Me

Who am I?

To begin I must state who I was

I was happiness and naivete

I was sound personified 

I was a future waiting to happen

I grew into fear and insecurity

I grew into silence

I grew uncertain and unhappy

I became confident and assured

I became intelligent and productive

I became happy and lively once more

I am who I am because I endured

I am who I am because I believed

I am who I am
