The Real Me


I am not like the another girls

I don't want to be in the spotlight

But to be the one behind the scenes

I rather give than receive

I am not perfect

but I am a work in process

I made mistakes 

and had setbacks

But I strive to be a blooming butterfly

To learn, to teach, to follow, to lead

So I can impact somebody else and even the world
