They say!!
I am going through what they call adolescences. They think I just looking for ma identity, for the person I am, and they think I don know what I am doing. They think me en't ready to face the ugly world .to face what they call life
How am I gonna get far if they don let me fly, they don let me spread ma wings and try. To experiment with ma life to get wiser, I have a strong head screwed on ma shoulder I know ma limits, why don they understand? That we are all, not bad. I have a further I want be some one.
When will they see that I can handle ma self? When will they see that I ent a kid any more. When will they let me face ma fears, and will they mollycoddle me forever? when will they learn that ma life is short and, there are lots I want to learn? There are lots I want to see. There’s so much there I feel I am missing I feeling the world calling me, telling me to live , telling me to come , and taste what it is really to live.
They say I will waver from the path that I have set out to pursue. they say that in this delicate age guidance is something u don think u need ,but u do they say ,they will put u on the right path …….but how can they when I don which path I want to be on….
give me chance, let me decide….. for the first time…..let me feel that ma decision matters….even if yours is binding….. take ma suggestion…hear me….I don always talk crap…I am forming opinions …I have views….. hear them…. I know they are strong…. I am trying hard to climb the few steps… to becoming and adult… a responsible one I promise…I want to be the person u dreamed your daughter to be
Words hurt me…. thing matter to me…they mould the person I am going to be…. so don say derogatory things… they hurt me and even at this age make me want to cry…. don say the things u do they leave a lasting impression they make a scar that's going to last a life time….not jus any life time….they are things that are going to torment me for as long as I live….
If want to help…I will ask….don jus do it. let feel things I say are heard even if they aren’t and u don think what I say makes sense…. respect it anyway…. I ent telling u not to tell me what is rite or wrong that’s your job …jus telling u…to change your way of doing it….be nice I ent 5 no more I am growing…. see the transition give me ma space… let me be me…. let me decide….let have ma own Identity ….I am forming it…
