A Bird's View
Soaring,
Seeking,
Flying through the wind.
Creative,
Open
Minded,
Determined, to fit in.
Wings flapping,
Breath shorting,
Chest tightening,
To keep, a steady balance.
If I fall,
My life,
Would be a sitcom.
Reaching,
Longing,
Just for a friendly hand.
Dreaming,
Thinking, of the best friend.
Cold,
Numb,
Tired of impressing,
Tired of the fake me,
The real Me is hatching.
I don't exactly know why I compared this situation to a bird, but I guess, that's what makes it unique.
From reading this poem, I hope teen girls will just act themselves and not go through any mess, just to get a friend.
