I wish I were pretty
with long flowing hair
I wish I were stunning
To make them stare
I wish I were beautiful
With intent hazel eyes
I wish for a perfect body
And a perfect size
I wish that he loved me
That he kissed me all day
Sorry, I was naming things
That I can never change

You are one year older
One year stronger
One year wiser
One year kinder
One year sweeter
I know in the years to come
You will become these things again
Until you are as
Strong, wise, kind and and sweet
as a person can ever be
So why do I still worry about you
My dear sister,

Here I stand, just being me.
Not what i'm supposed to be
Just living life to the fullest now
Without all that shame always bringing me down
You think that i'm afraid
Well i'm coming back for more
I'm a fighter. I survived
I am Whitney;
Hear me roar.

Fool me once
Shame on you
Fool me twice
Run.

What is the
Universe?
Stars, Planets?
Sun's, Moons?
Space ships blast off
trying to figure out
what exactly is out there
beyond the eyes of
Humans.
Beyond the eyes
Of Earth.
They toy with planets
and send information
but-
They spend so much time
On other planets
Rather than thinking
about our Dying Earth.
Perhaps,
some things
should be left
Unknown.
