I love (Mother earth edition)

I love the way I can hear the trees breathe if I listen hard enough

I love sunshine after a cloudy day

I love hiking through mountains that touch the clouds

I love the way the ocean sounds at night

I love green leaves dancing on the wind 

I love trees so tall they seem to go forever

I love the caves that hold so many mysteries

I love how the sky changes clothes four times a day

I love the animals that call this place home

I love the humans that love this earth 

I love the girls who get their feet muddy just to connect with this beautiful home

 

and

 

I hate the humans who are destroying her 

taking away these things I love 

killing these animals who know how important

mother earth is 

who knows we need her more than we think we do.

  • 18 going on 19

    Legally I am an adult.

    18 going on 19.

    According to most,

    I still am a teen.

    According to most,

    I don’t seem like 18.

    According to me,

    I don’t think I’m ready to be an adult.

  • AHHHHHHH

    I keep wondering if something is wrong with me,

    Because I can’t seem to understand.

    And I don’t want to be the person that only writes about crushes and drama,

    I’m not shallow don’t worry.

    Yet here I am,

  • I don’t know, I’m sorry

    I don’t know.

    I’m sorry.

    I don’t know if I can do this.

    I’m sorry. 

    I don’t know if I can do this for much longer.

    I’m sorry.

    I don’t know if I can do this for much longer and I’ve been getting tired.
