I'm slowly vanishing
The person I once knew is clawing itself out of me
No more delicate little hands
No more tiny body
No more mischievousness
No more innocence
I feel myself growing into a stranger
I'm so frightened by what I see
What are these curves?
What are these moods?
Why am I crying all the time?
I scream for help
For guidance
But my voice isn't heard
Why does my life feel like it's on the edge of crumbling?
I'm like a snapping fish
Snapping at every word someone says
I criticize myself for being who I am
What are these pimples?
God I'm such a mess
Why do I even care about the way I look?
Why do I have to learn how to drive?
Why have I learned about money?
Why do I even care?
Cause God knows I have to

Change is the salt of the life and we need to accept it gracefully. Your poem has underline message which I liked the most apart from free flow...5*****
