Girls in the shows
Why do looks Matter so much In this world
If you're not pretty Like the girls in the shows
Why should you even try
Some people say your pretty
But if you're not like the girls in the shows -
?
What must it be like,
To grow up so beautiful,
What must it be like,
To grow liked by everyone,
What must it be like,
To grow up knowing,
How very praised you are. -
Truly
maybe being me,
is what I need,
to heal,
to recover,
to find people,
who make me smile,
maybe being me,
is what I need,
to be truly happy. -
why world?
i have so many why's to ask of the world
why i must wear a bra
when men walk around
chests bare
why i must scream
to have my voice heard
when men whisper
heard by the whole room
why we must kill everything -

The time is now
This is a poem I wrote during my time at The Governor's Institute of Vermont for The Youth Action and Global Issues week. I wrote this with Josslyn, Josie, Reese, Fiona, Sadie, and Ellie.
