How do I do this?

I want to be the someone- the someone that makes the change
and sometimes I feel like i'm going to keep pushing, and the doors will open.
But most of the time it seems like i'm nobody.
Just a 12 year old girl, in a wide, wide world.
Who am I?
There is so much wrong
with our world.
The innocent die,
The world warms,
The endangered become extinct,
There is hate, so much hate,
The people aren't equal,
and all I can think is that there is too much wrong with this world.
But I suppose, 
That if I had to choose, 
I would do my best
to right all the wrongs,
and convince others to join me.

  • Flurry

    My heart breaks

    For every snowflake

    That twirls down,

    Solitary

    Amongst a gray sky

    It looks lonely, you see

    Not as if I don’t know how that feels.

  • Fallen Tree

    A tree is downed in the forest

    It appears as a skeletal hand resting upon the snow covered floor

    Brown beneath, like ivory rotting away as it ages 

    And pure white on top, bone bleached by the sun.

  • Small Things

    I’ve started looking forward to the little things a little more 

    Than I look forward to next year

    Because it feels like next year is uncertain.

    I’m excited to eat peanut butter toast in the car before skiing,
