What I See


what I see now as i look through the mirror

the difference from then to now

the little girl i once was seems to change everyday i wake up

what i see now when i talk to my parents and everyone around me

 

as i look at my self i notice this little girl isn't so little

as i notice the kids around me aren't who they really seem to be

and food is more than ust chicken tneders and pizza

what i see now is a varity of a new begininng 

 

taking charge of my self and be countable of more responsibility is a new doing

i start to less andless ask mom for help and start to do more on my own to learn

i sit and see at school how the enviroment is starting to change

what i see now is all this stuff we were taught not to do is being done

 

the girls and boys i thoght were my friends, weren't anymore

i sit and watch as all the lies come out and go aroud

i notice you only have your back

what i see now is all the fairy tells are not true

 

i begin to see the taste of myself change

becoming to have myown voice and grouch at my family

i start to want to be like all the other girls

what i see now is i want to love myself 

 

i see how the education begins to start to get more aggrewsive

playtime and nap time go away 

you have to stay up late at night to get things done

what i see now is i am becoming adult

 

i start to need money

i try to be independent and have my own cash

working and balancin schol work

what i see now is to be more greatful

 

as life goes on and i grow and grow everday

i am thankful for everyone around me

i have gained so much content in my life and i dont want to go off these tracks

what i see now is a future, a bright one and to never give up...
