“What Do You See”

What do you see when you look at me?

A young girl starting her youth?

A girl that is looking for her life and love?

A girl that was made from Heaven above?

If that’s not what you see, look closer;

Look closer, People, see ME!

 

I am a brand new baby, in this life I am in.

I am a child of five, My journey of life is about to begin.

I am a child of twelve, I soon learn what the word Death means;

When my best friend died it seemed that the world had ended only for me.

I am a child of Thirteen; Adolescence opens its doors;

I am growing into a young Lady and I still have to grow some more.

Now I am a Woman Fifteenth, Life is full of surprises and wonders;

And as I look back at my childhood, I can laugh and cry at my life’s blunders.

Is that what you see when you look at me?

Or is it the way I am shaped or am formed?

If that’s what you see, Look Closer.

Look Closer, People… SEE ME!!
