I question what its like to really live
as I am living the life others can’t afford.
I have the world at my fingertips
but it’s slipping away with the feeling
that I am not good enough.

I read your poems and think of my daughter 23 now. She seems similar to you in a lot of your thoughts. Please let me tell you on her behalf as well as mine. If you let it, everything will come good in the end. I know those feelings you have too and believe me having been there myself. Things do get better. They really will.
Take care.

They say I'm too young to know what love is.
But the way you make me feel like a wondrous child,
is the reason why I'm in love.

I always knew I was never the favorite. What I loved was what you hated. Unmade beds, ranch dressing, and drawing. You woke up early and went to bed the same, I always thought it was because you tried your best not to see me. The fighting was full of empty words and slamming of cupboards. You tried to find me in the bottom of a wine bottle but once it was empty I was still the same person. It's not my fault I look like him. It's not my fault you decided to treat me like this. Months passed and we reconciled but I still can't find words to conjure up a conversation with you at the dinner table. Even though I'm able to help empty that wine bottle with you now, you still won't find who you want me to be at the bottom.

quote from one of my favorite movies, short term 12

I find it ironic how
I'm able to create extravagant
Sentences that leave others speechless.
But when you're around
I'm the one that's at a loss for words.
