Him
He doesn’t look at me
Like I look at him
I know exactly what he does at recess
Where he eats lunch
His middle name
I know what books he likes
What video games

I am 13
I am in 7th grade.
I like school. Most of the time.
I am quite good at school.
I'm in all the advanced classes offered. 3 years ahead in Math, 3 years ahead in my English vocab, and on the hardest History track.

Because I can’t seem to understand.
And I don’t want to be the person that only writes about crushes and drama,
I’m not shallow don’t worry.
Yet here I am,

The Other Girls
What you have for lunch is everything.

Trust
They tell me I can trust them with anything.
They tell me not to hide.
They tell me that they won't tell anyone.
But...
They never think about why I can't trust them.
They never think about why I hide.

Girlhood (A List)
Girlhood is texting your crush because it's late at night and you don't know any better.
Girlhood is staring way too hard at the prettiest girl in class.
