Alone in My Thoughts

Alone in my thoughts 

Sometimes I can't stand the loudness

It brings

Feelings of not being understood

Not being cared about enough to find out my truths

Instead

People always want something from me

Get that J-O-B

Finish school

Conform to what others want 

But what about what I want 

Me

The girl writing this poem

Don't my wants matter!?

 

What if Im still trying to figure it out! 

Do I want to be that counselor 

Or community leader

Do I need your piece of paper to classify my smarts!?

 

I'm tired 

I'm frustrated and I just want to call it all quits 

But I can't 

I have my daughter

She looks up to me 

I can't 

I won't let her down 

 

Something needs to change 

Something has to give 

Living shouldn't be so complicated 

 

I must find a way back to self
