Young And Strong

 Beating the heat and fighting my body during marching season.Making it to most prestigious marching band competition, AREA.Feeling it in my body, it’s my heartbeat, constant tempo of ba ba ba ba. Making new friends, losing old ones. Letting go of the past and, and brightening the future.Trusting my own kind with any of my whispers.Being an open book with empty pages. Being afraid of tossing a flag in the wild winds of the outside.Going for it and opening myself up to others like soda can.Falling for someone who sweeps me off my feet when I think about him. Looking at my reflection, accepting myself for who I am and becoming a confident strong young woman.
