There was once a girl
who wished to exist 
in a world
without hate or fear
a world 
where she could 
be heard and be seen
she wished to be strong 
get up after crashing
her body as much her own

I have seen women love this country,
while being silenced,
beaten,
harrassed,
ignored,
raped,
accused,
put down,
and still,
they are proud to be American. 
 

You don't have to lose yourself,
to find a happiness,
you where told to have.
You have to find the happiness,
you want to have.
 

I write letters to people
because I can't always make sense,
when those words,
come out of my mouth.
 

I'd give you my heart

and you'd break it

you'd leave me in the dust

and I'd cry

knowing I'd never get you back

your

leaving

is what

broke me

your

ignoring me

is what 

haunts me

your 

not caring

is what

tore me open

but your

leaving

also
