"Ew, you're being so gay."

So being gay is illegal now?

"Dude, stop faking it."

Do you want me to change?

"What happened to you to make you feel this way? It must have been awful."

i sit at the lunch table with my few friends,

i have so many thoughts at this time,

i am silent.

i need new friends.

i think.

new friends that don't treat me like i'm dirt.

For 12 years of our lives, we are put in this place. 

This place is where our energy slowly drains from our bodies. 

The work that we do slowly gets harder and harder 

Mother Earth holds us all in her arms,

engulfing us in a comfortable beauty.

She keeps us safe,

as we travel around the sun.
 

She’s gifted us the oceans and lakes,

the mountains and hills,

Trust is like 

Having one piece of salt 

Mixed with 

A pound of sugar 

If you lose 

That piece of salt
