a part of me
wishes that I wasn't so
afraid to say
something.a part of me
wishes that I wasn't so
afraid to do
something.a part of me,
no,
all of me
caught between my voice
and the echo,
afraid to become something else
afraid to become something moreme,
the wraith of empty school halls,
who hides from sunlight
to become her own shadowme,
the sticky note poet,
who hides behind a pen and name
to separate her mind from her bodyto be something
to be nothing
to be anyonebut me.
