Because I am a Girl I ask…people for help.
Because I am a Girl I believe…that anything is possible if you believe it enough.
Because I am a Girl I hope…that my voice will be heard.
Because I am a Girl I wonder…what everybody else is thinking.
Because I am a Girl I dream…of having choice.
Because I am a Girl I remember…what makes other people happy.
Because I am a Girl I like…doing things in my own unique way.
Because I am a Girl I dislike…when my opinion isn’t asked for.
Because I am a Girl I feel…that anything is possible.
Because I am a Girl I celebrate…that I can make a difference if I choose to.
