Through the years, I grow.
Life is easy at age three, it's just fun and games being carefree.
Then i turn six, and forced to do tricks.
Like playing games and living with two brothers.
Soon enough I turn eight, and mom bakes me the biggest cake.
Everyones happy especially me, I learn that happiness is the key.
When I turn ten, mom gets sad, double digits is a lot to be had.
Then I turn twelve, and I can finally reach the highest of shelves.
And not far after, approximetly a year, I reach my parents teenage girl fear.
Once fourteen comes, I think i know it all, but then I fall.
I fall in love, and get the biggest shove.
Carefree three is never wanted more.
But I learn, like I always do, and at age sixteen I'm no longer blue.
I create my own sunshine like most people do.
Loving my life, at age seventeen.
I hug and hold onto the best kind of me, the me I've always wanted to be.
Wiser, stronger, and certainly carefree.
