Scary
I think it's scary
To have someone
Who has done horrible things
Be in charge of our country
Have power and be in control
I love our world
But it's a mess
I don't want it
To get worse

One night I won't worry about old insecure men
At night
When my brain is flooded
With fears and worries
I think about
What will happen
If abortion isn't legal
If old men
Get to continue
To decide what
Happens to me

I want to grow up
I can't wait
To grow up and see
Every
Single
Opportunity
That no one
Will ever
Give me
Because I'm a kid
I haven't had experience
But only because
I've never had
A chance

When Will I?
Every time I read a book
I think
When will I
Get a chance
To change the world
When will I
Get a chance
To find pure happiness
When will I
Get a chance
To pursue my dream

Reaching for air
I keep reaching
for something I know I can't have
But I decide
To waste my energy anyway
All I want is for
you to look at me
The way you look at him
I'm searching for that
To hold on to

I Know What I Want
I stand by my word
I know what I want
I know its ok
So why would anyone
Be so rude to a kid
I’m a teenager
I’m rude

My Right To Live
Author's (long) Note:
Why is it that when you have a disability, that's all people see?
Kids my age:
-
prized possession
My parents thought I was nothing
More than an inconvenience in their world.
In this place I thought I'd be much more than that,
But they all push me away as well.
They say someone like me can't

Walking
You called this my "sulk walk"
You said just to talk to you when I'm upset
But I don't have you anymore
I don't have anyone here
I blocked her out so she won't get burned by my fire

School
What is there to do now? I don't know
My eyes are open but my mind somewhere else
Can't stay awake, can't stay focused
I only hear the air from the window pass -
The Season of Death
Death reaches his hands
Shrivels leaves
Rips them up
Soon the ghosts and ghouls will scream
They've waited all year for Halloween
But this death is not a scary thought
In fact it's comforting

Idea of missing
I wasn't sure what to think.
I never wanted that.
I didn't question love.
I didn't realize,
I was missing the idea of missing.
It was maybe strange,
to want to connect...
old and new.
