I was serenaded by memories
of why I weave stories and make-believes;
The feeling of creating something new
with my own hands and creativity
fuels the girl who loves dreaming in me—
the girl who sees the good in everyone,
the girl who still believes that life is fun,
the girl who's filled with love and empathy,
the girl who I wanted not to grow up
and end up like me who knows nothing but
darkness from all the pain and misery.
That girl still loves dreaming and so do I.
So I started this journey of being
a hopeless romantic who loves to write,
a poet who wanders in her own mind,
a storyteller afraid of people...
or—maybe just a girl stuck in a dream.
