I am a dare-dreamer, a mask wearer a soul bare-r (but not always my own); a word-weaver. I pull at thoughts like strings.

I fear I'm not enough, A young girl's quiet doubt, In this world so big and tough, I wonder what it's all about. I worry I can't measure up, To expectations high and strong, But I'll keep trying, never give up, Even when things seem so wrong. I'll take small steps, one by one, Learning as I go, you'll see, In the end, I'll find...

In a world that says I must be pretty, I struggle with doubts, it isn't easy. They want me to change, inside and out, But why can't they see what I'm about? I study hard, I do my best, But still, I feel I'm not like the rest. Insecurities fill my mind, Wondering if I'll ever find A way to be just who...
