Listen...
I want to beautiful
Instead of being told.
I want to feel loved
Without a chant or a scold.
I want real friends
Who won’t lie to your face.
I want to be a nurse
A dream I’ll have to chase.
I want my mother
To love me for who I am .
I want my father
To understand.
That I am a girl
Who is growing.
I am an achiever
Who won’t stop showing.
Showing how mature I am getting
A person who is gentle and kind.
Someone who is always on a mind
Just take a moment and listen.
