We are the People
We are the people.
The girl who wears every scar like a trophy.
The boy who struggles with reading.
The kid who protests for their rights.
The mother who works 3 jobs to pay the bills.

Lady Liberty
This statue is a woman.
She’s the symbol of the USA.
Yet people refuse to acknowledge her daughters.
The Lady Liberty, huh?
You know what that makes me think?
The one free woman.
Yeah.

Don’t Worry Your Pretty Little Head
“Don’t worry your pretty little head about that”
Every girl has heard that phrase at some point, or will hear it at some point.

Girls are pretty.
Girls are happy.
Girls aren’t smart.

Is This Really What It Means To Be American?
Is this really what it means to be American?

To start wars.
To cause pain.
To put others beneath you.

This is our last sentence
This is my last sentence: We all belong here.

A child's dream in passing
I want to rule the world

that showed how you really think
how you're a child

Good Bye Good
Greed overtook them
Only those in power shoot their guns in fear
Of the potential held in the palm of our hands
Delicate and rough fingers intertwined through every color to shoot back.

Walk into a Book
Imagine if
Every book came with a key
A key that opened a door
Into the book
Into the worlds
That are your happy place
Escape from reality
Taken to a new level
The joy found in between the pages
