In the deep hollows of my mind,
Enormous hopes and fears are what I find.
In the darkened hours of the night,
A million thoughts swirl in my head shining bright.
As I work through a tough jam,
Slowly I find who I am.
The person I want to be,
Is the girl I’m starting to see.
Bit by bit I see change.
Growing up is rather strange.
I have a high hope,
That my future is not a steep slope.

"I want a life that sizzles and pops and makes me laugh out loud. I want my everyday to make God belly laugh, glad that he gave life to someone who loves the gift, who will use it up and wring it out and drag it around like a favorite sweater." -SN
