You spend most of your childhood wanting to grow up. You dream of all the things you'll do, the people you'll meet, the freedom of a life where you are the captain of your own ship.

“I can make it hurt,”

My sister’s mouth uttered these words,

as she raised her pickle ball paddle to threaten my brother

My siblings have always had their moments,

where they would fight as if they were opponents

tiny rectangular black hole

sucking us all in

                                         faster

I think it's scary

To have someone

Who has done horrible things

Be in charge of our country

Have power and be in control

I love our world

But it's a mess

I don't want it

To get worse

I can't wait

To grow up and see

Every

Single

Opportunity

That no one

Will ever

Give me

Because I'm a kid

I haven't had experience

But only because

I've never had

A chance

Every time I read a book

I think

When will I

Get a chance

To change the world

When will I

Get a chance

To find pure happiness

When will I

Get a chance

To pursue my dream
