What does life have in store for me? Everything is coming together at last At this point, I would be afraid, but somehow I'm not, Future is approaching My personality changing And I'm almost seventeen. Wow Almost seventeen? I'm almost an adult and it's hard to realize this. I've been taking life in the perspective of an adult for some time now, but to become an adult to match my thoughts? I might finally act my age. I've got standardized tests to do I can't falter So many testings of different importances and knowledge levels are approaching and I've been so lucky to have been able to take a chemistry course of my caliber. But will I achieve my goal? I'm content and feeling full. a fullness that filled up the emptiness and anxiety pit inside me not more than eight months ago Wow Eight months ago? I've been living in my childhood city for about seven months. seven months. these months made me somewhat more than my usual okay they made me feel normal And that Love is for me And will be there for me True. My work ethic isn't how it used to be. True. My lack of influence and social acceptance aren't easy to avoid anymore. Perhaps, This is some kind of lesson? a... twisted lesson that involves the backstabbing of new "friends" they are Funny, Yet not. Accepting, Yet not. Envy and stupidity Ignorance I'm not any better in their eyes But I do not care I've been humiliated all too many times I feel Anger, Yet I shouldn't. This very school was chosen according to my research. So sometimes I feel like I've made a big mistake and that is all my fault. But it's like there weren't any other options either A family, that is short on money and barely afforded their children to go to school. Their story, repeats of every year that a new grade level comes into the picture. For as long as I've been in the 7th grade, I've remembered the struggle and the worry. I'm so sick of this infinite loop. So I will be the terminating condition stopping it at its roots. to destroy any chance of plant seed deciding to latch on to soil. the world doesn't need any more dead flowers.

Reflections of a 16 year old.

Wait don't walk away                                         Come back around                         One last time                                 Try to hold your ground I don't wanna ask any more than you can offer                     I can't take anymore anyways                                        You're not even trying             And I've seen you trying          I've seen you determined                           It lights up your eyes Like the celestial beings binge on brilliance       Makes your aura shine a little brighter                                          But now You're not even trying        Should I even be devastated ?             Should I even feel damaged and broken ?                          Cry you a river perhaps          You probably wouldn't even care It kills me to say this but                                  I wish You were trying.
