I get up,
get tough,
But do I cry?
No.
I stay strong with my actions.
I might bite my lip,
look down at my shoes,
I am not going to cry,
Not even one single drop.
When I get started crying,
I may not even stop.
I take a breathe and look down,
But I will be ok.
You know why?
Because I am a strong teenage girl.
