A have never seen a smile not beautiful


I am now 14 with the great big world around me
I walk around
And be free
But every day I have more fear of losing what means most to me
I’m growing up
Movin on
But I’m scared of the life that’s ahead of me
I’m no longer a little girl
Who can’t leave the house
In just 4 years will probably be moving out
With a life of my own
No body to use a shield from the outside world
I’m afraid to leave the house
The horror of being shut out
I know i need to grow up and express who i am
Show the world what i have to offer
But the fear that i might lose someone overwhelms my heart
I lose my sight with the tears that fall around my eyes
I can’t hear a thing
For the fear I’m being told that I don’t matter
I know I’m strong
I know I’m beautiful
I know I can have the world in my hands
If only my heart felt the same
You act like I’m a doll in your great big game
But I’m a grown woman who can handle some pain
So let go of me
Untie the rope around my waist
Because I’m gonna free
Have a family of my own someday with a smile on my face
Nobody understands that I’m not a game to be played
Especially because I know I can play better
No one will be able to control my feelings
I’m gonna spread my wings and fly
Freedom is so high
I may have the fears but I push them back and tell myself that I’m a girl who has the world
I control my own future
I control my limbs
No one can tell me what to do not even the bullies in my life
I have strength in myself no matter the fear cause baby I’m
I’m
I’m
I’m
I’m
IM FREE
And no one can hold me down
