Thirteen.

This is more of a song, and not quite finished but I thought I would post it anyway.

I used to be that girl,

Who genuinely smiled at everything.

So confident,

Never let anybody break her down.

 

Until that day,

My confidence was broken.

I let just one person get in my way.

 

From that day on,

My world has drastically changed.

I take everything that is said,

The good and the bad,

Overthink, overanalyze, every situation.

And i'll try,

To be that thirteen year old girl,

Again.

 

Always said i'd be strong,

And always move on,

From the negative thoughts in my head.

 

It was just too much,

I was forced,

To give up.

Let myself be taken advantage of.

 

I've been thinking about it now,

And I have come to the conclusion,

I need to change my outlook on life.

My point of view on life's situations.

 

So keep trying,

Never Give up.

Belive,

Stay strong.

I really liked this

Awesome, I especially like the last stanza. I feel like it was a little rushed, maybe add in a stanza in the middle. It's still pretty good though. It's tough to overcome things that knock us down, and writing about it can be kind of hard but you got it down in this. Great job!
