This body you see in from of you
Is only the shell of who I am
Protecting me from those who wish to harm
You don’t know the people I love
You don’t realize that the comma I missed in my essay
was a secret rebellion against grammarians
I’m a sister, I’m a sinner
I’m a girl who’s trying to find her keys
I’m a Mormon, I’m a nerdfighter
And I do what I please
I need a little bit of pizza
a lot of love
And I need to get OUT of this town
I wear pajama pants
Every. Single. Tuesday.
Because sometimes I need to sleep in another 12 minutes
I write about how I feel
How I think
And what’s real
I don’t need to swear
to sound like I know what I’m talking about
This is my poetry
This is my life
And I’m not apologizing
