Today

Today I've walked around school in a haze

I don't know what to do 

How to feel 

I don't understand

How he won again

I don't think I want to understand

How people can think this is who should be running our country

Right now I cannot try to understand

All I can feel is fear

All I can hear is "Trump Wins"

Those words I've been dreading to hear

Those words so many people are celebrating

I try not to cause a scene 

To be to0 political

I try not to start a fight

But I hurt too much to not speak up 

And my wounds cannot be healed

Not until the man is out of office

So I guess I'll have to wait four years

How could we do this?

We the people,

Elect a convicted felon?

An abuser?

How can I go to class like any other day

When it's not any other day?

How can I continue to live in a country

Where being a woman means having your rights stripped away?

How can this be what America has come to?

But United we stand, divided we fall I guess.
