I have chosen to die
I have chosen to grow
I have chosen to be someone you don’t know
Someone that was hidden
Far from view
Someone who knows you, but you don’t know who
I am now new
Though I am almost old
I was someone who did as they were told
Now I am fresh and I am now wise
I have changed totally in everyone’s eyes
But I am not changed because of who I am with
I am changed because I feel less stiff
I feel more free
To be more me
Not someone that you wanted me to be
I am not Tina, I am not there
I am someone else, someone you can’t scare
Tina is dead
Long live me
Tina is gone
Now I live free
