Today I am afraid
For today my life
Lies in the hands of people
Who see me as a monster
A destroyer
Today I am afraid
For the day I finally can stand
My legs will be broken
By people
Stronger and more powerful than me
And in a week
My life will lie in the hands
Of the people
Who hate me
Just to spread
The hate in their hearts
Posted in response to the challenge Nov. 5 Election.
This country is empty
It is long gone
For the days of adventure
And truth
Lie written in our history books
Soon to be burned and forgotten
I'm 14.
And I just saw Bruce Springsteen
Live for the first time.
I've loved him and his music since I was 6.
I've listened to him religiously since I was 7.
018751 this was the lunch code I was given
My first day of third grade
My teacher wrote on my hand
With a green marker that smelled like berries
018751 this was the passcode for my first email

Thank you for raising your voice. We will fight back- or shall I say write back- and this country will see that we are not powerless.
Thank you, I intend to do all I can with my voice and my words. we are definitely not powerless and it has to be known!
