I am mine

Do not touch me 

Do not comment on my appearance 

Do not look at me as if I am nothing 

Do not act like I am yours

I am me

When will you see that I am mine

I own myself 

And yet you still seem

To control me

Do not deny

What you have done

Do not say

I liked it 

Do not talk

About me and ignore my existence 

When will you see that I am mine

When will it be clear what not to do 

I am me

You don’t own me

Stop acting like you do

I am everything you wish you were 

Stop

Don’t even dare

She is hers

I am mine

    Crop tops 

    And still support

    Women’s rights

    Why can’t I wear makeup

    On my face

    The only sign

    Of any emotion

    Are my fists

    Clenched by my sides

    Or my thumb

    Tapping each finger

  • I'm Sorry

    I'm sorry 

    I'm sorry for what 

    My country is doing 

    For what we seem to think 

    Is OK   

    I'm sorry for how 

    My president is acting
