I am a 16 year old girl

I wonder if i will ever see a perfect world

I hear the soft sound of the waves hitting the shore

I see the good in people when they can’t see it themselves

I want a break from this world, only for a little while

I am a 16 year old girl

 

I pretend that everything is ok when i know that it’s not

I feel the weight of the world on my shoulders

I touch the hearts of others with my words

I worry about my future

I cry when i know that i have no one by my side anymore

I am a 16 year old girl

 

I understand that everything happens for a reason

I say it will get easier *inshallah

I dream all of the places i’ve never been and want to go

I try to work as hard as i can to achieve me goals

I hope that i have a happy ending

I am a 16 year old girl

 

*inshallah: an arabic word which means if god wills
