Tonight
I will not sleep tonight
I will worry and fret
About the outcome
Of this election
This election
Will either be a blessing
Or a curse
For the next 4 years
I will not stop thinking

I'm not, and yet
I'm not responsible
And yet I have responsibilities
I'm not my siblings parent
And yet I am expected to parent them
I'm not that smart
And yet I must be right
I'm not mature

November Fifth
No one can predict
Our country's future
Various people watching and waiting
Eager and scared for the outcome

I Do Not Like This
I am angry
That we could have
Someone
In control
Of our country
Who is a fraud
A liar
A rapist
A cheater
A horrible person
I am scared
For girls
For gay people

Problems in Middle school
The worst
Feeling
When your in
Middle school
Is when
You think that
The guy
Who you hate liking
Likes your best friend
Who is better
In so many ways
She's pretty

I grew up in a messed-up world
I grew up in a world that taught me I should be "Ladylike"
My grandparents tell me "Well that's not very ladylike."
My parents say, "Why do you act like that."
What is ladylike?

Dear younger me
You are music.
You are art.
You are the flowers in your hair.
You are mismatched fuzzy socks.
You are your elephant dress over polka-dot leggings.
You are rain.
You are sunshine.

Alone
I do what I’m told
I have friends
I try my best
But it isn’t enough
I ninety feels bad
A failure
But for some people it’s a win
I don’t want to squash their victory
I don’t know how to feel

Dear America

November 6th
November 6th, 2024
Today my grief is loud
She is shaky and terrified
I hold her gently in my arms
