With Ears and Eyes


To open up to someone else's words

few people will actually listen

To read somone's words,

few people will actually read

Words are not meant for one, 

but all who will listen

with eyes to hear

with eyes to see

With the ability

to understand,

to compare,

to empathize,

to feel...

with minds to think

with a soul to feel

I am a teenager in the US who enjoys Disney movies, 90s tv shows, and anime. I am considered "punk" or "emo" by many of my peers, but I just dress the way I like, label free... I like dying my hair crazy colors, my favorite was blue, but I also like being a blonde, it gives me an excuse when I have those "blonde moments". I enjoy writing poem, lyrics, and sketching in my free time.
