It's enough to make a girl cry

I need to write so badly because all this anger and fear are sticking to my skin like an anxiety sweat

and yet I can't seem to make any phrases and stanzas that are understandable outside of my head

I curse this stupid world for all this hatred that people bottle up inside themselves only to spill it out onto the innocent 

sometimes I question how sane my country is when I look on the news and my president is calling tariffs on penguins 

I wonder if I am just smarter than the adults now and I should be in charge but I don't think I could handle that pressure 

and I'm angry that I struggle to find joy more often now because I used to be overflowing with the stuff to the point of being an ass

like I said it's hard to write poems when all I can see is a blur that comes from tears and my head starts hurting because I've always been sensitive

I can't even read the news anymore and when I write these poems that's how you know I got sucked into the white house website again

shocked at the lies pilling as high as the statue of liberty while I'm standing at her base wondering who allows all the lies in the first place

and I wonder where this poem is going but it's ok because all I really need right now is a way to vent all these feelings because I don't know how to write songs after all.
