Someone, somewhere is always fighting for you, as long as you remember her, you are not alone.


I am a child

I am a book of memories

I am my mothers eyes as blue as the ocean

I am my fathers energy

Never able to sit down


I am all I see

People struggling for their lives

The ocean waves crashing on the shore

The fresh pages of a new book

Children skipping to school

Animals fascinating and unique


I am all I hear

Parents praising me

Parents shouting at others

Stories from the past

Stories about the future

Wind and rain in winter

Shouts of joy and ice cream bells in summer


I am all I feel and taste

My mothers cookies and bread

The sand between my toes

Soft but rough, wet and squishy


And all I remember

Long roads to no where

The clouds from airplane windows

Forming castles fluffy and white

The sounds of laughter


I am all I've been taught

'Change the y into I'

'Always be responsible'

'Don't drink and drive'


I am all I think

Dreams and nightmares

Crawling inside my head

Inspiring and terrifying


I am all these things

Just like a cycle

Soon I'll be free

I'm the woman of the future
