The Cycle of Me

Read from right to left :

Who is that girl                                                                                With a twinkle in her eyes

Filled with happiness and glee                                                         And a sparkle in her smile

Is that me?                                                                                                   Is that me?

 

A year passed                                                                                   With a jump in her step

Will changes as its aftermath                                                           And pep in her prep

Is that me?                                                                                                   Is that me?

 

Love in her eyes                                                                         Who fought for what she loved

But now are tears in disguise                                                           And got it

Is that me?                                                                                                   Is that me?

 

Who gave it all she had                                                                Loved to be touched

And got nothing in return                                                            But now wants not one word

Is this me?                                                                                                    Is this me?

 

Who can’t bear to face her fears                                                      Who lives a life full of doubt

And can hardly stop the tears                                                          And can’t seem to get out

Is this me?                                                                                                    Is this me?

 

A girl who struggled                                                Who thought she could do everything

But soon gave up the fight                                                  But is always told she is nothing

Is that me?                                                                                                   Is that me?

 

 

Who thinks she has a future                                                             A girl who has goals

But in return is told she can’t do a thing                             But is told they’re too high to reach

Is that me?                                                                                                   Is that me?

 

A girl even through all the bad times                                               Who walks in darkness

See’s the good                                                                          But still finds the light switch

Is that me?                                                                                                   Will that be me?

 

Who stands tall                                                                                A girl who finds her path

And can do it all                                                                              And does it all

Will that be me?                                                                                           Will that be me?

 

A girl that travels the world                                                             Who finally says

And has a life                                                                                   THIS IS ME!

Will that be me?
