by @genisis-corbett

I try not be dumb Stubborn and irritating but I'm the youngest Looking through my black screen of my phone I can't push it back anymore so here's my story My dad is a liar, a coward and a fuck I never wanted to believe in such things but once he stroked me with words like a bear tearing through flesh I realized My mom is hopeless , kind, and love sick, she hurts and cries for a love she'll never by a man who will never love her My sister is a jester and she looks down with disdain on the world like a mad man would in awe My friends are sings and minstrels I don't fit in and they travel going from place to place I can't keep up My crush is my longing my hurt and my mirror I will never have not will I cherish him in such love for I am weak So I'm looking through the black screen on my phone and see myself puffy eyes from crying, dulled copper skin and in my opinion not a waste of oxygen. I know I'm selfish for being in a perfect school. I'm hurt but say nothing. I don't hate my life I just wish it would be better..
