freckled girl

with cerulean eyes,

like the stars in the sky,

shining through the dark

freckled girl

wants to fly free,

but her wings are clipped,

so she stays

freckled girl

runs away from her problems

by distracting herself with books

and writing poetry

freckled girl

cries when she's lost someone dear to her,

then moves on with her life

as if nothing ever happened

freckled girl

doesn't know what the future holds

and that scares her

every. single. day.

freckled girl

becomes more intelligent by the hour

and craves knowledge

to feel like she accomplished something for once

freckled girl

leaves everything until the last second

so she can rush to finish it on time,

but she knows that won't work out well

freckled girl

feels timid when she speaks,

but pulls through the pressure

and performs with ease

freckled girl

aspires to be creative in every aspect

she remembers she's not,

but she tries nevertheless

freckled girl

wishes to heal wounded souls

and broken hearts,

but she's not sure how

freckled girl

hasn't reached her golden hour,

but imagines it in a field of flowers,

dancing in the sunrise

freckled girl

living alone,

seeing the world,

standing on her own two feet

freckled girl

feels so insecure

about this new chapter of her life

she doesn't want to grow up
