I am a humorous and awkward type of girl.
I wonder if death is easy, since life is hard.
I hear my father whispering my name.
I see my father coming towards me with open arms, asking for a hug.
I want to go back in the past and change the future.
I am a humorous and awkward type of girl.
I pretend my life is great, and even put on a smile.
I feel my fathers presence around me.
I touch the sky, the stars, and the moon.
I worry about my mother at times.
I cry for the emptiness I feel.
I am a humorous and awkward type of girl.
I understand the frustration of life.
I say we are all equal.
I dream about how my life would be different with my father still here.
I try to suceed in life.
I hope for health for my family and friends.
I am a humorous and awkward type of girl.
