Thirty Nine
My hips got a little wider
And my chest grew a size or two
“Pay attention to your surroundings”
And
“Keep your head down to not cause unwanted attention”
Was all I heard
I had a hard time paying attention when all I saw was the ground

Bite your tongue
Your words are not worth saying
Bite your tongue
You'll be judged
Bite your tongue
You'll regret your words
Bite your tongue

I have never been in love.
I have never been in like.
I have only seen faces that
I found attractive and
placed my own narrative on
them, as if I created them.

"It is the people who hurt me that keep me from moving on."
This was her thought process for every minute and for every hour and for every day; until the days became her lifetime.

Thanks depend on giving, not harvesting.
