Just Human


I am a human

That is all.

Even when you zoom in,

I am small.

The world is large,

I am just one of  over 7 billion.

I shall take charge,

And train myself to work for the common civilian.

I am just a girl,

With big dreams.

I want to become a pearl,

And try to not to tear at my seams.
