growing up

A Poem by Viola

when I grow out of this teenage skin
who will I be?
will I be still afraid of the rain?
or will I know how to fight my fear.
will I learn the art of letting go?
or will I still cling to my past
will I be happier?
or will my hormones still find ways to infulence me
will I still feel lonely?
or will I realise that loneliness was never defined by company
when I will grow out of this teenage skin
who will I be?
Will I be a woman who is ambitious?
or will I still never know my ambition
Will I be prettier?
or will my acne make it to adulthood
will I have the will to live?
or will I lose to death
when I grow out of this teenage skin
who will I be?
will I find love?
or will i still be the lover and not the muse
will I be understood?
or will I still be misunderstood
will I stop feeling empty?
or will the feeling consume me
when i grow out of this teenage skin
I hope i am free.
