The Chronicles of Me

This is my day of reckoning

My day of redemption

My day of independence

---

These words written have the ability

To make this caged bird free

Today is the day you finally understand

The chronicles of me

---

So many trials and tribulations

In so few many years

A young mind so exposed

Life always switching gears

---

We’re all faced with obstacles

Some difficult to over come

I have had to choose my own paths

Some that cannot be undone

---

I’ve grown from a child

So young and naïve

Always trying to be invisible

Unheard

And

Unseen

---

But times are changing

Bad times turn good

Doing things I want

Instead of things I should

---

I want you to understand me, inside and out

For this is my first step to breaking free

Be patient for this is just a little glimpse

Into the chronicles of me
