I really hope she wins

I knew this was coming 

I knew he would run again 

Every four years 

And yet it still comes 

With a shock 

Then she stepped in 

Giving me hope 

Calling him out 

If she wins 

She will be 

The first woman president 

It's crazy 

That there have already 

Been 46 

Presidents 

And not a single woman 

If she wins 

This country 

Our home  

will survive 

We will grow 

We will change 

For the good 

If he wins 

I'm scared 

The mess 

The damage 

He will lead our country to 

It scares me 

The things he says 

I'm worried 

For young women 

Non-Christian people 

Non-straight or cis people 

Anyone who isn't like him 

Who knew 

A little kid like me 

Would think about that 

The fear I feel about him 

The joy and pride I feel about her 

Representing our country 

Leading our country 

Making us safe 

I really hope 

She wins

    Maybe anger

    I want to cry

  • Scared to Fall in Love

    What happens if I fall in love

    And no one's there to catch me

    What if I give them the world

    And they ask for the universe

     

    What do I do if falling in love

    Is like free-falling but not knowing where

  • Can't Change Me

    She upsets me

    Her face

    The way she laughs

    The way she talks

    She's like the piece of hair

    That is never in the right place

    Why does she even wear that

    Why does she look like that

    Looking at her
