Change

Nobody understands,
Nobody gets me,
I've changed an awful lot,
But no one seems to see.

I'm told to be an adult,
Yet i'm treated like i'm five,
Expectations make me stress,
And i'm expected to survive.

You make it so damn hard,
Just to be myself,
You think you can use me,
Then place me back on a shelf,

I wont be here forever,
For when you fall apart,
I have my own life to live,
And will soon need to start,

I've changed for the better,
I know where I fit in,
My only problem now,
Is where do I begin,

I need to start the journey,
To the place where I belong,
I know that i'll fit in there,
Maybe i've known it all along.

I Wanna Be

I wanna be a lot of things, Some girly, some weird. I wanna be a lot of things, But not something that's feared. I wanna be a ballet dancer, Strutting gracefully upon a stage.

Growing Hope

Field of flowers, hope so bright, Just the one I need. Set me free, launch my flight, Plant my new grown seed. Round I wander, picking stems, Grow my mind just right.
