Who You Are

The girl in the dark

You are young

So young and afraid

You sit and wonder what everyone thinks

And yet it doesn't matter at all.

The beauty of your name

It's true meaning lies only within its beholder

You.

Your shyness overwhelms you 

You worry too much

But there's no need

Your strength unimaginable

Such a way with words

Your kindness warms the hearts of the ones you touch

Though still, you feel trapped

Closed in with nowhere to run

Such a wide world around you and yet

You know nothing of it

So much to explore

So much to see

And you can go

Get away from this

You can be free

You ARE free

And you... Are me
