Sep 2016
I used to turn away from the sun and spit out the water.
But now I bloom beautiful colors and the weather is hotter.

I used to stop in front of obstacles, turn and run.
But now it's obstacles zero and me one.

I used to be so small and weak.
But now I am strong and no longer meek.

I used to bottle up and be quiet.
But now I've turned the volume up and started a riot.

I used to hate and put myself down.
But now I remember whose daughter I am, pick myself up off the ground and straighten my crown.
