Hoshinoumi.

A sea of stars.

That’s what YWP is.

A sea of beautiful,

Stunning,

Stars.

You can see why

I’m an expert at knowing, my mother tells me I’m wise beyond my years, and she said I’m emotionally intelligent-but she and I both know that’s not true, she’s telling me this so I don’t have to burden her by telling her my problems.

I’m one of those people,

That won’t stop scrolling.

Yet I senselesly double tap

The screen.

When it says that phones are bad.

That we need to talk 

No, you don’t.

But I do though.

I have something to say about real issues and you say that I don’t.

While you all are just spitting what others want to hear.

My life, 

is a bottomless pit of expectations.

There are so many things

that people want from me.

And it's tiring.

My dad expects me to be perfect at sports,

My mom expects me to have perfect grades,
