What am I? (1)
Am I
My Characteristics?
If so, then
I am

Dark circles under tired eyes,

Quiet smiles that don't say much,

Anxiety that clings to every thought,

Bleached hair that used to be colorful,

A body that doesn't fit any clothes quite right,

Nails chewed down to the skin,

Someone who tries so hard to be kind.

(is this who I want to be?)

What am I? (2)
Am I
My hurt?
If so, then
I am

A child who grew up too soon

A girl still stuck in the past

Nail scrapes on bright red skin

Drawings hidden in a locker

Touched by darkness

Tear stained journal pages

Doubts that follows everywhere

Someone who's told they're not trying enough

(This isn't who I want to be)

What am I? (3)
Am I
My joy?
If so, then
I am

Laughter echoing through hallways

Muscles sore from dancing

Worn down pages of a book

A test graded 100

Cookies straight out of the oven

Fingers pressed against strings

Rain drops on a window

Little moments of eye contact

Someone who keeps trying despite it all

(This is What i want to be)
