Dear Birthday Girl.

Happy birthday to me.

Happy birthday sweet soul.

You're 16.

You get to go to school.

Dress up in your best outfit. Look pretty, today is your day.

Enter the school, get greeted by the ones you loved so dearly.

Go to the place that has caused so many memories.

Go do the old habits you used to do.

Don't look for the forgotten one, even if you know he's closer than before.

If you find him, don't break down.

He's happy, that's all that counts.

Walk the halls, like you run the place.

Keep your head high.

Don't break down.

Don't fall again.

It's your day. Nothing can break you.

When you start to worry, there is someone that takes the pain away.

That one person will pop up when you least expect it.

And give you your birthday present, to remind you to be happy in your moment.

Remember the past.

Live the present.

Seek the future.

You're only 16 once.
