"Be the change you wish to see in the world"-Gandhi


Walk down the hall

they scream

but, but, but

Its broken, dark, and scary I repeat

why would anyone

want to enter the unknown I say

Everyone accomplishes it they state

Why cant you…



I’m only a young girl

With nothing at all to offer

This is not meant for me

This is not my destiny

I’m too young, dumb, and naive

They simply reply

So was she

and point the other way



I turn to see her face

the face of the brave

the face of victory

I turn to see

the face of me

I wrote this poem to symbolize me as I go through life. Its about how life is unknown and scary but achievable.
