Contemporary me

Sixteen years and I’m still learning,

Heart is loud, but the world keeps turning.

Dreaming big but scared to fall,

Trying to prove I can have it all.

I’m a spark in the midnight sky,

A question with no clear reply.

Finding my way, setting me free,

This is contemporary me.

Mirror shows a face I know,

But deep inside, I’ve room to grow.

Lost between the past and now,

Still unsure, but I’ll figure it out somehow.

I’m a spark in the midnight sky,

A question with no clear reply.

Finding my way, setting me free,

This is contemporary me.

Likes and follows don’t define me,

There’s more to life than what they see.

I may stumble, I may break,

But I’ll rise again for my own sake.

I’m a spark in the midnight sky,

A question with no clear reply.

Finding my way, setting me free,

This is contemporary me.

Sixteen years, still chasing light,

Learning to stand, learning to fight.

Not just a shadow, not just a name,

I’m writing my story, I’m changing the game.
