The sixteenth year Of my life Playful as a kitten Colorful as a rainbow A complex woman A complex woman I had expected to be taller than this, driving a car, better in basketball, more secure, I had expected A little more than this.
I will be seventeen soon.
My mom was once seventeen.
My mom lived at seventeen a teen of untamed possibilities solid as a rock pure as snow.
my mom was popular her smile was always around and she was very smart and beautiful and happy.
I have dreamed dreams for you mom more than once.
I have wrapped me in your arms and had you hold me again more than once.
I have taken the bones you hardened And built a life And it has grown and showed the world warmth Like the sun.
I am a woman now A complex woman In the sixteenth Year of my life Surrounded by youth, A perfect picture of Life regenerated I had not expected this beginning.
