EVOLUTION OF MY LIFE

by KRISTEN

As a little girl nobody told me how
Hard it would be;
Didn’t tell me that I would be bullied,
Get hurt, and let them make fun of me.
But the thing they did tell me is that I
Would be something;
Told me follow my D.R.E.A.M.S and
Let no one tell me different.
In the evolution of my life, I would
Move from being that shy girl to
A shy girl who can sorta speak her mind.

I started to let music, poetry, and
Dance influence my life,
So now I let music fill my D.R.E.A.M.S,
POETRY grab my hand, and DANCE lead my way
The evolution of my life is the three above
MUSIC, POETRY, and DANCE.

I use to be the one who would be
Afraid to say hello, talk to new people
And be me.
Now I can do the above,
I let music fill my D.R.E.A.M.S
POETRY grab my hand and
DANCE lead the way
Will I revert to the old me?
Quiet, shy, and nervous?
NO!

I will be loud, courageous and spontaneous.
The evolution of my life is and will
Forever be MUSIC, POETRY, and DANCE.
I am Kristen Dominique Newman.
I am eighteen.
I have evolved into a mature,
Yet fun young woman.
I do let music fill my D.R.E.A.M.S.
POETRY take my hand . . . and
DANCE lead the way.
