When I Was 21

When I was 21, I just learned how to be a lady, Playing make ups,thong my hairs and dressing pretty. When I was 21, I just learned how to be sexy, Catwalk confidently,sway my hair and body. When I was 21, I learned how to be entrepreneur, Talked thru my eyes and using my brain. When I was 21, I learned how to be a girlfriend, To love and being loved even thru the rain. When I was 21, I learned how to be a friend, To lend a shoulder and my pair of ears. When I was 21, I learned how to be an artist, Paint my heart with songs and not by justice. When I was 21, I learned how to be a daughter, Devote,responsible and brings laughter. When I was 21, I learned how to be a learner, Life's aspects and everything's corner. That was..When I was 21, Now many years had gone, And 21... Is still something to ponders on...
