i know you.
i know everything about you.
i know that you are turning 13
in august.
i know that you wish that you
could live in a castle one day,
with huge spiraling staircases.
your pupils are always dilated,
even in the sunlight.
you cut your hair a little bit
shorter each month, just
to show people that you can.
you love to read old books that
you find in locked up cupboards.
you hate wearing flannels,
they make you feel old.
you have a book filled with
pictures of your friends, so
that you can save the memories.
you think that your dad
doesn’t care about you because
he has never been home
for your birthday.
your mom works full time,
so you take care of your brothers
on the days that they
are home.
you cry when a tv show
ends because there won’t be
more for you to watch.
you love to run through your
woods and pretend to run away
because maybe someday,
you will.
you are not perfect,
but you don’t care because
no one is.
you are everything
anyone could ever need.
