Well, mother, ill tell you life for me is like a mountain

Trying to get on top 


Unequal

Negativity

Favoritism 

Acrimony 

Iniquity 

Regret 


3 sunflowers

1 daisy


Perfect grades 

Perfect life 

Future valedictorian 

The first doctor in the family


But that doesnt matter 


Constantly always brought down

As a result getting them higher 


My 4.0 GPA is nothing compared to his 3.85 

I will never compare to them 


But why?

Hi I am Kaylen from Maui, Hawai’i. I am currently a 9th grader in High School. This is a personal poem I wrote about my life. I’d like to thank my family for always being there for me and my English teacher for this opportunity.
