I want to be

I want to be like me when I grow up

The me the people know of

The me the people show love

I want to be the me I created

back when I was just a kid and 

nothing I did could compare to 

what I would do because 

when I was a kid

I wanted to be an astronaut

I wanted to fly through the stars

be the first girl on Mars

an astronaut

but now

I just want to be me

I just want to be happy

I just want to be free
