"I’ve been writing ever since I was 12. I’ve used different mediums to express my thoughts but this has been the most developed. Writing is my outlet, it’s where my ideas, feelings, and ambitions are stored and without it I wouldn’t truly be myself."

the world may not understand
they let go of anyone that does not seem sane
they make fun of anyone that is different
they feel the need to always voice their opinions
when maybe it is more harmful than helpful
when somebody doesn't understand it 
they try changing it 
fixing it they say
when in reality it may be just a different opinion
a different way of living
the pain, the grief and the suffering
may help someone in their life
the unknown and the scary may feel the same way towards you
but they are trying 
reaching out only to be told that what they think is wrong 
and that they need 'fixing'
children grow up with all of these thoughts of how the world is innocent and naive
these thoughts are shattered by the reality that the adults have created
adolescents going against the world the adults have created
are told to shut up
and that their opinion doesn't matter
when it's this world that they have to live in
realizing there is beauty in imperfections
the broken things are the most interesting
to love whoever we want
breaking these stereotypes the adults have created
fighting for our freedoms 
our basic rights
we will yell and fight and get out voices heard
nobody is perfect
but the imperfections are the most perfect
