For the girls with messy hair and thirsty hearts...

I am a girl
Who loves from within
And doesn't care
Where you've been

I am a princess
Long shall I reign
Defending my castle
Without any restrain

I am a girl of God
Loyal can I be
Preaching His word
To everyone I see

I am a girl
With messy hair
And has a thirsty heart
Willing to share

I am a girl
With many flaws,
But I fight without
Any withdraws

I am as fierce as the wind
On a stormy night
Forbidding with all my might
To not leave without a strife

I am who
I am
And I am proud

The author's comments:
When I wrote this poem I was in the middle of reading a book called Tiger Lily. It's about love of course, but as a girl it made me feel fierce and brave and gave me the feeling that I can do anything as a girl. For anyone who is reading this I HIGHLY HIGHLY suggest you read Tiger Lily. It is a wonderful book that you'll never forget.

"I want a life that sizzles and pops and makes me laugh out loud. I want my everyday to make God belly laugh, glad that he gave life to someone who loves the gift, who will use it up and wring it out and drag it around like a favorite sweater." -SN
