There are times in a young woman's life Where she has to protect herself Protect her heart and words Because nothing ever lasts Unless you know boundaries When it comes to love When it comes to trust When it comes to honesty When it comes to security
Girls grow up thinking ''Growing up sounds fun'' But then, as time goes on We begin to miss being *young Being free spirits in terms of youth In terms of thinking and feeling And the importance of confidence As well as being free to have fun As if life had just begun
Young girls are more confident Well, in the childhood days But as they grow and understand The importance of beauty overshadows them And as they go through puberty They realize how much beauty Is a major factor in happiness When they become obsessed With self-appearances And body types Make-up Alcohol Drugs *****
Not sure what the hell I just wrote, hahah. Just felt really inspired and this is the finished piece. I don't know if this makes any sense at all, hope it does though.
The title of this poem was inspired by Lana Del Rey's song ''This Is What Makes Us Girls''
