Bloom

Bloom
Blooming
Like a beautiful flower
Just waiting to come out
I'm no longer the little girl
You once knew
I've change
In more ways than one

I've made some good choices
I've made some bad
But that's okay
I'm just beginning to live
Life to the fullest of my
Abilities

I know what's wrong from right
Right from wrong
But its hard to live in a world
Of white and black
I rather live the fullest
Even if its in the shades of gray

Bloom
Blooming, coming out of my cocoon
Like a caterpillar
Unsure, confuse
Of its surrounding
Playing in instinct

But that's okay I'm
Still learning

For those of you concern of me
Don't be
I'm the girl who can take on the world
Remember
So no worries

Coming out of my shell
Blooming into the world
Bloom, Blooming into the person I was meant 
To be
