this dress is itchy
these children are loud
it smells like feet
i have never felt less
like a princess

but you make it easy
to keep smiling

i have discovered
after 16 years of life
i have been missing out

i dont really like the color
but like, orange tic tacs?
they vibe.

i am full            of colors
blue and pink     red and black
always moving and changing
there are things i dont know
things i cannot know
and it drives me
crazy

i could sleep
if i wanted to
but why would i

"stop trying, it's pathetic and you're going to scare everyone away"
"you're alone, nobody is going to save you"
