Beautiful
MAGICAL
fun
full of adventure
There are...
Hills to climb Oceans to cross Rivers to ford
Those are the first things
I would tell a fifteen-year-old me
that I was..
funny-likable-caring-talented-intelligent
full of love
give in to passion, to love
Passion is a tyrant of the heart
but don't be afraid
You might make mistakes...
IT'S OKAY!
That's how you learn
Unless you refuse to learn what life has to teach you
There will be difficult times ahead
You might lose your way
But you can reclaim yourself by knowing
WHO YOU ARE
holding tight to who you are and not believing
THE LIES
that the outside wants to tell you about yourself
that you need to be
goldenblonde-modelthin-cheerleadyhappy-PERFECT
if you can hold on to the child,
the child who loves sunshine
singing
dancing in the rain
and laughing
and reading all night
and writing...
if you can keep that joy,
that love of life...
then you will meet what comes
with everything
that you will need to have a good life, my darling.
