"Maybe this is what growing into being an adult is- feeling more like a child than you ever have, even when you were one." I love this line so much. When I was younger I tried to act and think like an adult. Now that I'm older, I feel younger than I actually am, and I try to value my youth more.
Humanities. I love English and this class is basically a combination of English and history which means we have two teachers. The people in this class are also really cool and I like the teachers alot.
So far Algebra 1 because I'm awful at math but I like the teacher and students or Integrated Science which I like the subject of but so far its kind of boring. My school does different classes each semester and I have a feeling my least favorite this year will be PE which I have next semester
Humanities again. It's my only year long class and I just think it will be really fun.
I'm a Freshman
Some days lunch is fine, others not so much. There's always pizza though so I think I'll stick to that most days. I really like the people I eat with though and my school has a cafe where you can get frozen yogurt for like a dollar so its not all bad.
Not really any fun facts, this was really fun to do though :)
I had to take a break after reading, I was so overcome by emotion. This is so well written, and it really made me feel heard in a way that I’m not used to. If this was written from experience, I’m so sorry for what you’ve been through. You are so talented!
Same. Sometimes it feels like the poems write themselves - I post them, forget about them, and then someone will comment on it and I'll think, wow, who wrote that? and remember I just didn't edit it, so it never stuck in my memory!! There really isn't one way to write poetry!
If you hadn't stated this was unedited, I would have assumed it'd been manipulated somehow -- it's simply gorgeous! I love that the dandelion seeds are like a halo of radiating light and warmth.
Wow, I could imagine hearing this on the radio if put to music. In fact, it feels meant to be put to music! Your words are incredibly lyrical: simple, short lines that hold so much meaning, and can be interpreted however the reader wishes (through the lens of their own life, and easily so). Your repeated stanzas are a perfect catchy, melancholic refrain.
We can always count on the positivity of your poetry: You always make me smile. (Which is not to say you should never explore other themes and tones, just because I mentioned that -- you have a way of making words sparkle, no matter the topic!)

Thank you so much!
