I Am
I am me, and me is not and will never be like anyone else, ever.
Everything about me is beyond amazing, tho I will never see that in myself.
I will always be told that I am amazing, every smell, every look. every sound.
No one will ever have a voice as tired as a sleeping baby because I have been screaming for help...tho it takes a minute to realise that it is all in my head.
No one will ever have the personality of a loud confident looking girl who inside is as vulnerable as a daisy a girl who feels she is always walking on eggshells.
No one will ever have the soft pale skin with light brown freckles that look like scattered pepper from head to toe.
No one will ever have my experiences that would end up forcing young girl to grow as quick as weeds in the garden.
No one will ever understand me, and I will never understand you, for we are all completely different and that is beyond amazing because that is what makes this world, because
I AM

Inside
Sights of a long, winding road It never
STOPS
Chilly like lemonade
Scents of apple cider
Squishy cinnamon buns for breakfast
Piles of leaves as tall as a majestic mountain Children’s laughter
What a beautiful sight!
Lakes, leaves, tranquility, calmness
I wish I could experience all of it... BUT
I am stuck
