Ordinary Girl

Myla was an ordianry girl. Well...mostly. She can read minds and she has photographic memory. She was made fun of and she had no friends because of it. Everywhere she went people were always staring and pointing at her. Crowds of people would clear away as soon as they saw her. Her mother always told her that they were just jealous of her. Myla tried to wear dark colors to blend in and hide behind her hair but everyone still noticed her. As she got older and got more control over her mind reading she read peoples minds to see what they really thought of her. She smiled, turns out my mother was right, she thought. There is a silver lining to each and every cloud.

  • Today's Fears

    Teens are afraid
    We worry
    Do I look okay?
    What do they think of me?
    We obsess over how we look
    We worry that we're not thin enough
    We think we need to be skinny and perfect to fit into todays society 
  • In the distance

    In the distance
    Lies a magical fantasy land 
    Where objects talk 
    And dragons fly
    Where dreams come true
    The clouds are cotton candy
    The trees are made of chocolate 
    It's an escape from reality
  • As the Sun Begins to Rise

    As the sun begins to rise
    The birds stretch their wings and wake everyone up with their singing
    The foxes and wolves yawn and stretch
    Ready to look for their next meal 
    As the sun climbs the sky
