Cogratulations, girl!
You're finally 13!
You are an adolescent from now on
and that change things.
No, nothing is easy.
In fact...
Now that you're a teen,
you have responsibilities,
you're not a queen,
but you have the abilities.
Some things are easy,
some other may not,
you will not succeed in everything,
some things are out of your control.
You gain some experience,
you walk past the fence,
you're not a child now,
but neither you're a frau,
Everyone expects from you such great things,
maturity, courage and not being cringe,
Oh no, I can't take all that pressure,
for some watching you suffer is a great pleasure.
Your body will change,
everyone will judge you,
by your appearance only,
and if you're okay, nobody will ask you.
Mean girls, bad boys, strict parents, annoying teachers,
all these can be enormous mood killers.
Fake friends, drama, tears and lies
will actually prevent you
from eating french fries.
Someone will raise fake reputations,
but do not worry at all,
you know it's all his creations.
You'll worry about your height,
but that is natural,
even though your height is 1,58.
What isn't natural depends on you,
for what are your beliefs, for what you can do.
But let me give you some piece of advice,
keep your family close to you
and don't think it twice.
Some things will come by themselves,
but most of them you have to chase them.
Like Santa Claus' faithful elves,
They won't come by themselves.

Childhood was a great experience,
but now you have to move on,
open a new chapter.
Don't worry, everything will go fine,
such as a growing pine.

And that's on being a teen girl nowadays.
