She isn’t perfect
She thinks she’s not good enough
She thinks she’s not pretty enough
She thinks she’ll never achieve her dreams
She thinks she’s hated
She needs to feel accepted
She’s a child
She feels she’s growing up too fast
She feels she’s not growing up fast enough
She feels too small to help
She feels too old to play.
She wonders if adulthood will change anything
She is a daughter
She knows she can’t live up to their expectations
She knows she’ll be relieved when they’re gone
She knows there will be no one to disappoint
She knows she shall regret her words
She doubts that she’s good enough.
She is a friend
She wants to live for them
She wants to watch them be happy because she’s not
She wants to be valued by them
She wants to love them more than herself
She knows they care too
She is a girl
She worries about going out alone
She worries she doesn’t do makeup right
She worries that she doesn’t dress well enough
She worries men watch her but also when they don’t
She wants to feel perfect
She is a student
She can’t get all the answers correct
She can’t survive without a good grade
She can’t believe in failure
She can’t cope with pressure
She prays to be smart enough.
She’s a 13 year old girl
She wonders when she will be okay
She wonders if she overreacts
She wonders can she be good enough
She wonders what will happen if she stops for a second
She has to make it past 14
