We Can’t Let Him Win

I could ramble on all day about the ethics of all the things our country’s done. 

But I won’t. 

Instead I’ll say this one thing: it’s going to happen again. 

Everything he’s done, it’s going to happen again or at least, continue happening. 

With a president like him, how could it not? 

But we ignore this.

We pretend like it’s a one-time thing.

Because we’re too scared to admit that maybe it’s going to happen again.

Too scared to protest unless we have nothing to lose.

Stand up.

Say no.

Please.

We can’t let him win.

  • My Thoughts

    A thousand thoughts pounding into my head ALL THE TIME.

    Whirring past at a million miles per hour.

    Filling my head with noise.

    The world makes it louder.

  • Sometimes

    Sometimes I wonder about the person I seem to be.

    Is she truly me or someone else entirely?

    Is it real or just a mask?

    And if she's just a mask, then who am I?

    Am I surrounded by lights?

    Or shadows?
