Once Upon a Time...

** Images For Use By Upgraded+ Only **

In a land called the U-S-of-A,
There lived a girl named Melissa.
She always had a lot to say.

Her childhood wasn't very pleasant,
But of it she made the best.
It helped to make her stronger,
To prepare her for the rest.

Her story is yet to be finished,
She still has much to do.
But she will share it all,
Right here, happily, with you!
