I have been very independent.
Very to myself.
No one to cry to.
No one to ask for help.
People help me with obvious things though; like homework, essays, and colleges apps.
It is awfully hard to pick a fight with something that you can not see or reason with.
All my life, the one thing that I have never seen, the one thing to which I have not been formally introduced.
What I would change
In this world with many things

When they wear shorter things
Because I shouldn’t be judged
Or followed down a street
For wearing a dress

And your cup over flows,
Things go haywire,
Objects explode,
Theres no air,

No air you cant breathe,

panicking over a dew drop

“I’m good” or “I’m okay,”

Not that you weren’t alone in the first place
As the sunlight slips between my fingertipsI watch the shadows fallThey fall in lacy breaths over my skin,Making darkness and light seem so intricate
The strength of the mind,
So quiet, though so kind.
Can the flower taste sugar,
As the bee take away?
It may seem that a way,
but we just may not know it.
So quiet, though so kind
