Feelings

I find myself both fearful and mad

At the outcome that happened on November 5.

I find myself wanting to curl into a ball and hide from it all for four years.

But I can’t.

None of us can.

And that scares me.

I fear for all the women who will have the government control what they can do with their own body.

I find myself scared of project 2025.

This man says he has no part in project 2025.

Bull crap.

Lies are all he knows 

All he can say is a big fat lie.

And I just want it to end.

  • A Call To Action

    We are a group of people mostly under the age of 18 that according to the government might as well not exist.

    We are underestimated by grown-ups

    Because we have not been through all of school.

  • Shrouding My Differences

    Almost every day I wear a hoodie.

    To hide a part of me that I can’t escape.

    It shrouds my difference from the world.

    So that I can seem normal.

    So I can fit in.

    So that nobody can pick on me about it.

  • Daily chaos

    Every day at school is chaos.

    The noise

    The people 

    All the people 

    Sometimes I want to hide in a corner 

    To get away.

    To recenter myself.

    So that I don’t break down.
