"The Chronicles of Crystal Tierra Holmes"
  by Crystal T.


Born October 7, 1989
Was a girl who's been successful her entire lifetime
She possessed a personality that could mend a broken soul
Yet it was hard for her to trust many so at times she was brutally cold

She has been in love not once but twice
At the mere of 19 that would definitely suffice
The first was with a guy by the name of Mr. Maye
The second is currently the guy she is dating today

She was a tomboy until this guy rid her of her boyish ways
Rough housing, cuts, and scrapes those were the good ole days
Now she is girly, french curls, tight jeans, even an arched eyebrow
She has slowly but surely matured into a beautiful young woman now

Currently a college student at Armstrong Atlantic State University
She's an intelligent black woman who's GPA helps her stand out with diversity
She has three siblings: two sisters and an extremely tall brother
A step dad, an uncle, and an over concerned mother

She is loved by many but completely understood by few
Only one did thus far but she broke his heart too
She often wanted to walk this path called life alone
Because as quick as love comes, is as quick as it could be gone

She has many dreams and but one aspiration
She hopes to accomplish them all before she reaches her final destination
She is often busy, programmed to believe there's a deadline coming soon
She misses her free time, standing in fields and wishing on the moon

She wonders did she decide to grow up to fast
Her teenage years just flew straight past
She ponders on whether decisions she made was for the better
Could things have been different if she'd mailed her ex that final letter

Her insecurities have made her extremely independent
Her overall persona is described as resplendent
Her stubbornness makes her leave important things unsaid
There's somethings she won't admit til the day she's almost dead
Somethings are truly meant to be left unknown
You have just read the chronicles of Crystal Tierra Holmes.
