My Name Is...

Cristina is my real name the
Name I have gone by for the
Last 17 years of my life.

Yesterday my name was MOODY
One minute happy, and the next
Mad not knowing why

Tomorrow my name will be HAPPY
Full of joy, and enthusiasm. Happy
That my family is growing bigger.

In my dream my name was SAD,
Sad to lose someone that
I love, and care for so much.

My mother, father, sisters, brothers,
And friends my name is ATTITUDE
Always talking back, always have
To have the last word, sometimes
Not thinking of whom I can hurt.

Inside my name is FRAGILE very
Easy to hurt, easy to break,
Sensitive like crystal.

Secretly I know my name is STRONG
Getting through whatever comes
My way. Showing that I’m
Not scared.

My name was once CONFUSED not
Knowing what I wanted out
Of life. Confused like when a
Baby is first brought into the world.
