this is for the kids who aren't comfortable in their own skin
the kids who want to tear themselves out of it
honey, listen- don't
i know you think you have become your greatest fear
but you are still standing
honey, listen to me, you are human- monsters don't bleed like that
and it is time to wake up and realize it
i know the body in the mirror has seen a thousand shades of broken
but it is still a body
and i know your mind has told you an encyclopedia of lies you think are true
but they are not, and someone should have told you that
you are alive
i am alive
we are still standing
and i have never written a poem like this but
i wanted to write something beautiful for once
something to remind the world that we are not our pasts but
we are going to be the future so
it is time that we stand up and see it
look alive // k.
