she had fought so hard
and then she finally won
but it had come back

tears fell down her face
she thought she won her battle
i guess she was wrong

where is she now, though?
God sure has a plan for her
good luck to gretchen
written for my former teacher. enjoy.

I'm the type of girl
so wears jean shorts and a crop top
on Wednesday,
but wears mesh shorts and a tee
from 2008
on Saturday.

I'm the type of girl
who gets mad when it rains
but 25 minutes later
is out dancing in it.

I'm the type of girl
who says I hate boys
then likes one.

But I'm not the type of girl
who says she's not that type of girl.

if I told you I was god
would you believe me?
if I told you I was immortal
would you believe me?
no.
so why would you believe me
if I told you I like poetry?
or if I told you that you were beautiful?

your eyes are like the bright sun
everything surrounds it
but it sustains us

everyone wants to be trendy
while steering away from the trends.
trying to be hipster or cool
all while not trying.
it does make sense.
we want to stray from tradition and stand out
but also be normal and fit in.
we need to make up our minds.

we are growing up
slowly
getting older
more mature.

we are changing
naturally
getting bigger
very tall.

but no one thinks about
what happens after we grow up
yes, we get jobs
and make a family
but what about after that?

do we sit there and rot, waiting to die?
do we wait?
of course we wait.
but what for?

we are all side effects.
we are not the entree
we are the side salad.

we are all side effects.
we are not the universe
we are pluto.

we are all side effects
of a medicine
called humanity.
