15/F/Texas Hi, my name is Maddie. I love sports, especially basketball. I am the oldest of 5 kids. My favorite subjects are math and science. And my favorite color is blue.
Oh the stars and moonlight The stunning shine But that shine is not enough to get you out of my mind Morning walks While we just talk Nights on the grass While we wish for time to not pass Stuck in our own world Were it's just us The sun rises And I too arise Look to my right And you are not in my sight For you, my darling Only live in my dreams

Dreams
Put on right out of the womb, a crown was placed on her head 5 diamonds are placed to represent each burden Perfection Therapist Extra parent No remembrance of her childhood And giving when there's nothing left to give As the years go on, she will make mistakes Hers being the hardest to forgive She will take the pain and burdens of the ones who brought her into this world and others without a second of hesitation and still feel as if she is not enough She will me extraordinarily mature for her conquest asked of her But not nearly mature enough for what she wants She will put every person before her But when she does something for herself, she's called selfish and lazy She surrounds herself with books to take her to a place that expects nothing but the flip of a page Countless times, She will compare herself to others She will stay up late working on that paper to get extra points just to please her parents She will have impossible expectations to meet Do you know who she is? She's the eldest daughter She won't want to have kids for the fear of putting her oldest through the same pain But most of all, she won't get what she craves the most Unconditional love

The Crown
There it lays- in millions of shattered pieces My heart, destroyed and scattered on the floor The remnants of the tears that now stain the pillow All because it was her- it was never going to be me, was it? You say the sweetest things Play with my hair But it will never be me, will it? No matter how hard I try And try And try It'll never be me Go on Go pick her like you always do Don't worry about me I'll be fine My heart can weather this pain once more But don't worry darling, you've only shattered it once before I'll always be by your heart and you'll be by mine Even when it's you who shattered my heart
