  • I do not understand

    I do not understand how some people choose to live in ignorance of the world around them

    Ignorance is not bliss

    It is deciding that you do not care to know about the struggles of others

  • Go Ahead

    Hurt me a in million ways,

    and shatter my heart,

    then send me away

    with an open scar.

     

    Pull me in close,

    then rip us apart.

    Kill all my hopes

    to get what you want.

    i go to school these days & i'm scared i'll get shot

    earbuds always in, trying to drown out my thoughts

    fall to the ground, let it all float away

    look me in the eyes & i'll believe every lie you say

  • We are here

    We are Gen-Z 

    Even if you don't think so.

    We are here even if we 

    Pretend we’re not.

    We are matter 

    We take up space.

    We are important 

    Even if we don't think we are. 

  • H E A R T

    Oh-

    Punctured the main artery, sunsets flowing down your ribcage, dull frantic thud-

    I’ve done it again,

    Left an empty hole in the middle of your chest

    Maybe there was something there before
