Birthday Poem

a year older

but nothing has changed 

I'm still that two year old

who cries about small little things

I'm still that four year old

who laughs and wanted attention

I'm still that six years old who sees the world as a wonderful place

of hopes and dreams

I'm still that nine year old 

who loves every guys every guy she sees

today marks another chapter of my life

it reminds me that I got through

ups and downs for fourteen years

and it gives me hope

that I can survive eighty more years of shittiness

and that I can still be me because age is just a number

and nothing would change in my heart

-a.k.

I wrote this poem on my birthday when I turned fourteen. I wrote this to actually remind myself that I will get through this tough times and it is just a phase. I had fun on my birthday and my friends actually surprised me. I thought they weren't coming but they shouted at my door with a loud, "Happy birthday, Heaven!". I was really really surprised and happy that they came and made my birthday a wonderful day. 

I still go through ups and downs even my birthday just passed.
