Lashes flaked with snow and dust, Lips caked with dry, cracked sand— Hair strands tangled with blades of grass, Soft skin battered with bruises and cuts. Fingernails fetter...

&quot;It&#039;s hard to show who I really am to even my closest friends, but when I write poetry, I reveal who I am to myself, and that&#039;s all that matters.&quot;- Me

**Sometimes I wish I could just be a little kid again. So when life gets tough you can just play pretend. I wanna go back to when Santa did exist. When your daddy was the only boy you ever kissed. When Disney World was the best place to be. When the only movies you could see were rated G. When your biggest problem was learning to write your name and people didn&#039;t change...and your friends were the same. And every time you were sad or you had a bad day. You could just run to mommy and it would all be okay. I wanna go back to no hurt...and no pain...just laughter. When everyone always lives happily ever after.**
