It Doesn't Make Us Like You
It doesn't make us like you
The comments behind our backs
It doesn't make us like you
To comment on our shorts or our pants
It doesn't make us like you
To be scared to wear leggings
Do you think it does?

you like it don't you
you like it don't you?
you like how it makes you feel to be loved
you like the gifts it gives you
and the glow in her eyes when she sees you
you like it don't you?
you like to be loved

Because you don’t even know
Until it’s often too late
No one pays attention to your symptoms

From the moment we are born
We are given a gift
And at first we don't realize it
As children we think less about the why and the how

A Letter for Everyone on YWP – One Last Time
Dear YWP,
The first time I wrote you a letter I was 13.
The second, 15.

The Selfless Teacher
The third-grade teacher who was always more than her job description demanded she be.
She was the one who held you when you'd cry,
supported you through academic challenges.

I am a 17-year-old girl who has jumped through several hoops to get to where I am today in life.
I have spent my teenage years healing the younger me.

Stories Are Funny
Isn't it funny
how you can write
your life's story
with a realization
that changed your world
and have no one
ever read it?
Isn't it funny

is this what graduation feels like?
Fifth grade in my school is when
one of the kindergartners is your
book buddy,
when we read to them every Friday morning,
and when we leave,
it's when we mourn
the loss of our little friend
