I wanna be a kid again,
When all it took to make me happy was
Stickers and bubble gum,
When all I had to do to smile was watch
Sesame Street or Dora.
When the only other place I stayed
Was Grandma's house .
When foster care, was an ad on TV
And self harm was unheard of.
When I didn't care
How fat my face looked in a ponytail.
Or about how many followers I had on Instagram.
Or what generation iPhone I had.
I don't want to be this girl.
Too grown for her age, bruises on her knuckles from sticking her finger down her throught. Thinking too much , bags under my eyes. Daddy's dead and flashbacks from my stolen innocence and little pink lines to keep score.
So if you would like to save me
From the monsters
From myself.
Don't send me to your thearapist.
Give me a time machine.
"You say don't act like a child- but what if it's a father I need ?"
