I really hope she wins

I knew this was coming 

I knew he would run again 

Every four years 

And yet it still comes 

With a shock 

Then she stepped in 

Giving me hope 

Calling him out 

If she wins 

She will be 

The first woman president 

It's crazy 

That there have already 

Been 46 

Presidents 

And not a single woman 

If she wins 

This country 

Our home  

will survive 

We will grow 

We will change 

For the good 

If he wins 

I'm scared 

The mess 

The damage 

He will lead our country to 

It scares me 

The things he says 

I'm worried 

For young women 

Non-Christian people 

Non-straight or cis people 

Anyone who isn't like him 

Who knew 

A little kid like me 

Would think about that 

The fear I feel about him 

The joy and pride I feel about her 

Representing our country 

Leading our country 

Making us safe 

I really hope 

She wins

    Whispers travel in the halls at school

    Weaving into people's brains

    And people decide whether they like

    What is going on

    In a split second

    There was this book

    That I used to read

    When I was younger

    It talked about all these women

    All these women

    Who did amazing things

  • Magnets

    When magnets are placed the right way

    They connect

    When they're placed the wrong way

    They use everything in their power to stay away

    From each other

    They resist

    With a force
