  • I Run

    One foot in front of the other

    Pursuing the search for my goal

    Feet pounding against the solid ground

    Heart pounding against my chest

    The rain pummeling the dirt 

    The wind whisking the hair out of my face

  • If Only

    If only they thought of everyone

    Not just themselves

    Think about it

    Millions of people

    Saved 

    What about the people who can’t help themselves

  • The Changing

    I love the sound of the wind rustling the leaves in the trees

    The same leaves that in due time turn red and orange and yellow

    Conflict is hard

    Come together for peace

    A common goal

    A world of peace is all it takes

    And whispered to the moon,

    About the days that haunted her,

    She wanted to apologize,

    For wishing on the stars,

  • Emojis

    I scroll through the options

    Endless rows

    And rows

    And rows

    Of smileys

    And animals

    And faces

    And people

    And things.

    I scroll through the multicolored hearts

    The laughing faces
